What’s next We’ll continue to make Atlas better, and our roadmap includes multi-profile support, improved developer tools, and ways Apps SDK developers can increase discoverability of their apps in Atlas. Website owners can also add ARIA ⁠(opens in a new window)tags to improve how ChatGPT agent works for their websites in Atlas.
What can I do to improve my website performance with ChatGPT agent in Atlas? Making your website more accessible helps ChatGPT Agent in Atlas understand it better. ChatGPT Atlas uses ARIA tags—the same labels and roles that support screen readers—to interpret page structure and interactive elements. To improve compatibility, follow WAI-ARIA best practices by adding descriptive roles, labels, and states to interactive elements like buttons, menus, and forms. This helps ChatGPT recognize what each element does and interact with your site more accurately.
