Platform project exists and has credits.
Tried:

Update: I completed OpenAI Platform company verification for the same account/organization, then fully quit Codex, rebooted Windows, launched Codex again, and retried dictation.

The issue still persists. Fresh logs from 2026-05-15 show the same backend error:

[Composer] dictation failed errorMessage="{\"detail\":\"No active organization found\"}"

Additional local confirmation:

  • Organization exists and is active in Platform.
  • Company verification is now completed.
  • Codex was restarted after verification.
  • Windows was rebooted.
  • ~/.codex/transcription-history.jsonl still has not updated since 2026-05-08, which matches dictation failing before transcription text is saved.

So in this case, creating/verifying the Platform organization did not resolve the Codex Desktop dictation failure.
