Why Infosys is betting big on OpenAI

Infosys has partnered with OpenAI to help businesses bring AI into real software development workflows, not just keep it stuck in experiments and demos.

The idea: Infosys will combine OpenAI’s models, including Codex, with its own Topaz platform. The goal is to help companies move from trying AI to actually using it at scale. That could mean faster coding, smoother workflows, and fewer bottlenecks across projects.

Infosys is also aiming to help companies improve engineering efficiency, redesigning processes, and making sure AI delivers real, measurable outcomes.

The numbers: AI now contributes about 5.5% of Infosys’s revenue, which is roughly $275 million. Even more interesting, the company is already doing AI-related work with 90% of its top 200 clients. 

The bigger trend: AI companies like OpenAI are teaming up with IT giants to push adoption inside large enterprises. OpenAI has already partnered with HCLTech, and Infosys is also working with Anthropic on similar efforts.

This also comes at a time when global AI investments are surging, as companies race to move from experimentation to real-world deployment.
