OpenAI to Unveil $200 Pro Plan with GPT-4.5 and o1 Pro Mode
OpenAI is likely to launch a $200 per month ChatGPT Pro plan. This will likely consist of all the features in the Plus plan and access to the additional o1 Pro mode, which is said to use more compute for the best answers to the hardest questions. Furthermore, the plan is set to offer unlimited access to o1, o1-mini and GPT-4o along with the advanced voice mode. In another instance, users noticed a message ‘Limited preview of the GPT 4.5 model’  in the front-end JavaScript code in the ChatGPT Teams plan.

Apparently, updating to ChatGPT Pro from the Plus version will offer credit on a pro-rata basis for the remaining time in your subscription.

A user on X reacted to Tibor Blaho’s post and said, “If it’s true that there will be a $200 plan, I don’t see a future for it because we now have many open-source tools.” Ever since Sam Altman announced the ‘12 Days of OpenAI’ feature drops, demos, and model announcements, all eyes have been on the AI giant to see what’s in store for users. Social media enthusiasts have only amplified the excitement. Guess there is a fair bit of compensation for an uneventful second birthday of ChatGPT. The company also announced that ChatGPT has 300 million weekly users and sends over one billion messages every day. Interestingly, a few reports surfaced a few months ago that stated OpenAI’s plan to raise the price of ChatGPT Plus to $22 per month, a $2 increase by the end of this year. While there isn’t any information yet regarding a pricing increase of the Plus plan, it may still be part of their plans. Apart from their standard text-based models, another highly awaited announcement is their text-to-video generation model, the Sora. It was released earlier this year but isn’t available for use yet. We also saw a sneaky preview, apparently leaked by a set of beta testers, and the API was available on Hugging Face before the page was taken down.
