## Summary

AtScale announced on October 20, 2026, that it has been named an OpenAI Select Partner within the OpenAI Partner Network. The partnership aims to deliver governed metric computation and trusted business context to enterprise deployments of OpenAI's frontier models and Codex. AtScale's Universal Semantic Layer provides shared business definitions, metric computation, query optimization, and governed data access. The company says its AI Computation Engine (ACE) computes metrics using shared definitions so that agents produce consistent answers. AtScale CEO Chris Lynch stated that enterprise AI is moving into everyday business decisions and organizations cannot have every agent inventing its own version of key metrics like revenue or churn. President Jay Schuren added that connecting OpenAI's models to AtScale's shared definitions ensures every metric is computed the same way every time.
