OpenAI to reopen $200 ChatGPT Pro sign-ups Sept 30 with reduced usage allowance
OpenAI paused new sign-ups for its $200 ChatGPT Pro tier on September 10 after heavy demand, leaving the $100 Pro plan as the top option for new buyers. OpenAI executive Thibault Sottiaux says sign-ups will reopen September 30 at the same $200 price, but with roughly half the previous API-dollar allowance and no five-hour usage cap. TestingCatalog has also spotted an unannounced $500/month 'Pro Max' tier appearing in the subscription interface.
