The tool uses an agentic harness to analyze client information, public sources, and past precedents. This system creates a tailored starting point for lawyers to review, rather than requiring them to manually sort through large volumes of information.\n\nCooley's innovation and legal teams designed the agentic harness to enforce a controlled workflow. This workflow specifies which tasks the AI agents can perform automatically and where human lawyers must validate the work. The firm aims to redirect lawyer and client management time away from manual sorting and toward strategic decision-making and professional judgment.","keyPoints":["Cooley developed GO Public, a proprietary AI tool built on ChatGPT Work to assist with IPO preparation.","The tool uses an agentic harness to combine client data, public sources, and curated precedents for lawyer review.","The workflow requires human lawyers to review and validate the work at designated steps in the process."],"whyItMatters":"This shows how top-tier professional services are using agentic AI harnesses to automate document synthesis while keeping human experts in the loop for high-stakes transactions.","category":{"slug":"enterprise","name":"Enterprise & Industry","url":"https://digestai.news/category/enterprise"},"entities":{"companies":["Cooley","OpenAI"],"models":["ChatGPT Work"],"people":["David Wang","Dave Peinsipp"]},"firstPublishedAt":"2026-09-17T12:00:00Z","updatedAt":"2026-09-17T12:00:00Z","sourceCount":1,"hasPrimarySource":true,"sources":[{"outlet":"OpenAI","title":"How Cooley is accelerating IPO work with ChatGPT","url":"https://openai.com/index/cooley-gopublic","publishedAt":"2026-09-17T12:00:00Z","type":"primary","primary":true,"lead":true}],"sourceNotes":null,"discussions":[],"thread":null,"cite":{"text":"Digest AI, \"Cooley builds GO Public on ChatGPT Work to accelerate IPO preparation\", 17 September 2026, https://digestai.news/story/cooley-builds-go-public-on-chatgpt-work-to-accelerate-ipo-preparation","publisher":"Digest AI","title":"Cooley builds GO Public on ChatGPT Work to accelerate IPO preparation","datePublished":"2026-09-17T12:00:00Z","url":"https://digestai.news/story/cooley-builds-go-public-on-chatgpt-work-to-accelerate-ipo-preparation"},"generatedBy":"Written by Digest AI's editorial model from the linked sources; the sources are the record.","license":"Headlines, digests and key points are written by Digest AI and may be quoted with a link to the story page.
