OpenAI doubles usage limits for ChatGPT Pro and Business Premium plans
OpenAI reversed a planned cut to usage allowances for its $100, $200 and $500 ChatGPT Pro tiers and Business Premium subscriptions, instead doubling the limits effective immediately. The company also confirmed Dots, its always-on AI assistants, will keep separate, extended usage limits independent of a subscriber's default allowance.

The reversal, announced by OpenAI's Tibo on X, follows customer complaints about a planned 50% cut to Pro 200 usage despite no price change, suggesting subscriber pushback can shift OpenAI's product decisions quickly. It also signals that OpenAI may be prioritizing retention of high-paying Pro and Business customers as competition for AI coding and assistant tools intensifies.
- OpenAI doubled usage limits for Pro 100/200/500 and Business Premium tiers effective immediately.
- The company scrapped a planned reduction to Pro 200 usage allowances that was set to start after October 29.
- Dots, OpenAI's always-on assistants, will retain separate extended usage limits from standard subscription usage.
