OpenAI introduces $100/month Pro plan aimed at Codex users, here’s what it includes

OpenAI is launching a revamped $100/month ChatGPT subscription aimed at Codex users. Here’s how it compares to OpenAI’s existing plans and what it includes.

ChatGPT Pro is now more affordable

OpenAI introduced its Codex Mac app in February, giving developers new tools for agentic coding with artificial intelligence.

The new ChatGPT Pro tier is especially designed for Codex users who have outgrown the $20/month ChatGPT Plus tier.

ChatGPT Pro was previously only available for $200/month.

OpenAI says the new version includes five times more Codex usage than Plus, access to all Pro features including exclusive models, and unlimited access to Instant and Thinking models.

“To celebrate the launch, we’re increasing Codex usage for a limited time through May 31st so that Pro $100 subscribers get up to 10x usage of ChatGPT Plus on Codex to build your most ambitious ideas,” OpenAI says.

OpenAI’s $200/month tier is still available

While OpenAI has introduced a more affordable version of the ChatGPT Pro plan, the $200/month tier is still available for users with more needs.

That means there are now two versions of ChatGPT Pro. Naming has never been a strength for the ChatGPT company.

For clarity, OpenAI has an explainer with some helpful information.

First, these are the two Pro tiers:

• Pro $100 – Built for real projects. For those who use advanced tools and models throughout the week with 5x higher limits than Plus (and 10x Codex usage vs. Plus for a limited time). 
• Pro $200 – For heavy lifting. Run your most demanding workflows continuously, even across parallel projects, with 20× higher limits than Plus. 

“Both Pro plans include the same core capabilities,” OpenAI says. “The main difference is usage allowance: Pro $100 unlocks 5x higher usage than Plus (and 10x Codex usage vs. Plus for a limited time), while Pro $200 unlocks 20x usage than Plus.”

Codex has over 3 million weekly users

Meanwhile, OpenAI has shared some Codex usage data.

The company says Codex has more than 3 million weekly users. That’s a 5x increase in three months with 70% month over month usage growth.
