ChatGPT Pro's subsidized compute era ends: $200 tier usage halved, new $500 plan matches old limits
Norwood_Reaper_ · reddit · 2026-09-29
A Reddit post suggests OpenAI is winding down subsidized compute: the old $200/month ChatGPT Pro plan's advertised 20x usage will be cut in half, while the new $500/month plan offers limits similar to the old $200 tier. The takeaway: OpenAI's generous quotas are unsustainable, and heavy users who want the original limits will have to pay roughly 2.5x more.
