ChatGPT finally offers $100/month Pro plan
ChatGPT's pricing structure has always had an awkward gap in it. Twenty dollars a month for Plus, and then nothing — nothing you could buy as an individual, anyway — until you reached the kind of enterprise territory that requires legal sign-off and a minimum seat count. That gap has apparently been filled. On April 9th, TechCrunch AI reported the arrival of a $100/month Pro plan, sitting squarely between the consumer tier and the corporate one. One source, one date, one number. That is the complete shape of what we know.
If confirmed, here is what this means. OpenAI is making a deliberate bet that there is a population of power users — developers, researchers, consultants, small-business owners — who want more than Plus delivers but cannot or will not route a purchase through an enterprise procurement process. A hundred dollars a month is not a casual spend; it is the price of a professional tool, and pricing it there signals that OpenAI sees these users as professionals rather than enthusiasts. The second-order effect is competitive pressure on every other AI subscription in the market. If ChatGPT Pro delivers meaningfully more capability, it resets the implicit ceiling on what individual users expect to pay — and what rivals need to match. It also quietly expands OpenAI's revenue surface without the overhead of enterprise sales.
Watch for independent corroboration from users reporting access to the plan, or any update to OpenAI's own pricing page — either would move this story from rumour to fact quickly.
OpenAI has rolled out a new Pro subscription that costs $100 and is in line with Claude's pricing, which also has a $100 subscription, in addition to the $200 Max monthly plan.
OpenAI announced on Thursday something that power users have been asking for: a $100/month plan. Previously subscriptions jumped from $20 to $200 per month.
OpenAI appears to be preparing a new ChatGPT Pro Max subscription that could cost $500 per month, but it's unclear when it'll begin rolling out. [...]
