There’s a new level of ChatGPT available, but its $200-a-month price tag has the company pitching it to researchers and heavy users who are trying to push boundaries with the AI chatbot.<\/p>\n
OpenAI introduced<\/a> the new plan, ChatGPT Pro, on Thursday. It’s 10 times more expensive than ChatGPT Plus, which costs $20 per month. Other plans available include the $60 per month<\/a> per user ChatGPT Enterprise and the $25 per month<\/a> per user ChatGPT Teams.<\/p>\n Related:<\/b> Can ChatGPT Help Start a Business?

The o1 model <\/b>is better than a human expert at PhD level science questions and has a reduced error rate and faster response time compared to previous models, per OpenAI’s release video<\/a>. Pro users also have unlimited access to the older GPT-4o<\/a> and Advanced Voice<\/a>, a capability that allows for natural spoken conversations with ChatGPT.<\/p>\n In contrast, the $20 ChatGPT Plus plan only offers limited access to o1 and Advanced Voice, which means that subscribers have a limit on how much they can talk to ChatGPT or use the chatbot’s most advanced model.<\/p>\n “A lot of people, power users of ChatGPT at this point, they really use it a lot, they want more compute than $20 a month can buy,” OpenAI CEO Sam Altman stated in a video announcement<\/a>.<\/p>\n
