Why doesn’t a team AI plan share memory?
Because in the products people buy, memory is per account. Teams paying for seats discover this after the purchase. One customer on OpenAI’s community forum wrote: “This is actually so obvious that we signed up for a Team Account expecting this to be included.” Another described the workaround they landed on: because a Business subscription shares memory across an individual’s own chats but not across accounts, “we used the same account and experimented in that way”. Paying per seat and then sharing one login is not a workflow anyone chose.
ChatGPT Business was US$25 per seat per month at our July 2026 check and still does not share memory across accounts. Anthropic shipped team memory on Claude Team premium seats at US$30 per user in September 2025.
