On Tuesday, OpenAI released a new $500-per-month Pro plan that provides subscribers with the highest usage allowance among the company's subscription plans. The plan includes 25 times the usage allowance of ChatGPT Plus and offers access to GPT-6 Ultrafast tier, which can generate tokens up to 8 times faster than the standard speed.
However, the $200 Pro plan will see a cut, with the usage allowance in ChatGPT Work and Codex being reduced from 20 times the allowance of the $20 Plus plan to only 10 times. Existing subscribers will retain their current limits until October 29, after which they will receive a grant of 62,500 usage credits (equivalent to $2,500) that expire on December 31, 2026.
OpenAI argues that the change will still allow developers to get more work done compared to the previous Pro $200 subscription. The developer reactions were negative, with some users expressing disappointment. OpenAI claims that cheaper, more efficient models will enable subscribers to accomplish more work than before, even with the reduced allowance.
