OpenAI is partnering with Infosys to integrate its artificial intelligence tools, including coding assistant Codex, into the Indian tech firm’s Topaz AI platform, expanding access to AI capabilities for businesses.
According to Infosys, the integration will be used to help its clients modernize software development, automate workflows and deploy AI systems at scale, initially focusing on software engineering, legacy modernization, and DevOps.

This comes as India’s IT services face increasing pressure from slowing client spending and rapid advances in generative AI. Shares of Infosys have fallen over 22% this year after a broad sell-off was triggered by weak forecasts, investor concerns that AI tools could automate parts of traditional outsourcing work, and macroeconomic turmoil due to the U.S.-Iran war.
This comes amid a growing trend of AI firms teaming up with global IT service providers. According to a Reuters report, OpenAI said it is working with various major systems integrators, including Accenture, Capgemini, CGI, Cognizant, Infosys, PwC, and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), to help these companies deploy Codex across their software development operations.
The report adds that OpenAI is also launching Codex Labs, an initiative that will place its specialists directly within customer organizations.
Infosys has said that the collaboration leverages its global delivery scale and expertise in application modernization and enterprise transformation, positioning it to deploy AI solutions in real-world environments. The tech company further details how it has established an operating model that brings together technology, talent, and transformation frameworks, enabling clients to move from pilot projects to full-scale implementations.
With the latest deal, OpenAI will gain a distribution channel into large enterprises through Infosys’ global client base and delivery capabilities across more than 60 countries, TechCrunch reports. The companies said the deal is aimed at helping enterprises move from experimentation to large-scale deployment.
Infosys has been pushing its AI business of late. Earlier, the company said that AI-related services generated ₹25 billion (about $300 million) in revenue in the December quarter, or roughly 5.5% of its total.

“Codex is becoming a powerful workspace for managing agents across software development and business workflows. As enterprises move quickly to put Codex to work, we’re working with leading partners like Infosys to help more organizations move from early usage to repeatable deployment. Infosys’s deep expertise in large-scale software transformation enables enterprises to deploy Codex across areas like legacy code modernization, code review automation, vulnerability detection, and application development, while extending its impact to the systems and workflows where knowledge work gets done. We will work together to bring Codex to organizations worldwide,” said Denise Dresser, Chief Revenue Officer of OpenAI.
Meanwhile, Salil Parekh, Chief Executive Officer of Infosys, said, “Generative and Agentic AI will redefine how enterprises operate and grow. Our collaboration with OpenAI establishes an operating model to unlock AI value at scale – uniting technology, talent, and transformation playbooks so clients can move decisively from pilots to performance, creating competitive advantage. Together, we are not just shaping the future of AI adoption but also enabling our clients to lead it with purpose.”
