High-Impact Feature Request: Improving the ‘Projects’ workspace in ChatGPT”

Hello OpenAI team,
I’m sharing a set of observations and proposals regarding the “Projects” feature in ChatGPT. These suggestions come from real professional workflows involving large volumes of conversations, documents, and long-term project tracking.

Main issues today

  • Slow loading when opening older projects

  • Limited dashboard visibility

  • No bulk delete

  • No quick archiving

  • No metadata view (last opened, number of conversations, size, attachments…)

  • Navigation becomes slow and breaks the workflow for professional users

Opportunity

Improving Projects could:

  • Strengthen ChatGPT as a professional workspace

  • Boost the value of the Plus subscription

  • Provide a competitive edge (no other platform has this)

  • Reduce friction and external tool dependence (Notion, Google Drive…)

Suggestions

  • A unified “Project Manager” tab

  • Metadata visible without opening projects

  • Archive full projects

  • Bulk delete conversations

  • Advanced filters/search

  • Optional desktop export

  • UI and performance improvements

Happy to share a full proposal or dive deeper into these ideas if helpful.
