OpenAI: Consulting Brings AI to the Masses

On February 24, 2026, OpenAI announced the launch of the "Frontier Alliances" program. The partners are consulting giants: BCG, McKinsey, Accenture, and Capgemini.

This is a pure B2B maneuver. OpenAI understands that corporations won't buy a "naked" API; they need integrators who will rebuild business processes for agentic AI. By bringing in the "Big Four" as sellers and implementers, OpenAI guarantees massive commercialization of its platforms in the enterprise segment, leaving the dirty work of customization to the partners.
