OpenAI Launches ChatGPT Pro for $200/Month

OpenAI has announced the launch of a new ChatGPT Pro subscription that costs $200/month. The subscription includes unlimited access to 'o1' and adds a new 'o1 pro' mode that offers more compute for better answers.

Today, we're adding ChatGPT Pro, a $200 monthly plan that enables scaled access to the best of OpenAI's models and tools. This plan includes unlimited access to our smartest model, OpenAI o1, as well as to o1-mini, GPT-4o, and Advanced Voice. It also includes o1 pro mode, a version of o1 that uses more compute to think harder and provide even better answers to the hardest problems. In the future, we expect to add more powerful, compute-intensive productivity features to this plan.




OpenAI explains that ChatGPT Pro is targeted at researchers, engineers, and other individuals who use research-grade intelligence daily to accelerate their productivity. In particular it performs better on ML benchmarks across math, science, and coding.

More thinking power for more difficult problems
ChatGPT Pro provides access to a version of our most intelligent model that thinks longer for the most reliable responses. In evaluations from external expert testers, o1 pro mode produces more reliably accurate and comprehensive responses, especially in areas like data science, programming, and case law analysis.

Compared to both o1 and o1-preview, o1 pro mode performs better on challenging ML benchmarks across math, science, and coding.

To highlight the main strength of o1 pro mode (improved reliability), we use a stricter evaluation setting: a model is only considered to solve a question if it gets the answer right in four out of four attempts ("4/4 reliability"), not just one.


Pro users can access this functionality by selecting o1 pro mode in the model picker and asking a question directly. Since answers will take longer to generate, ChatGPT will display a progress bar and send an in-app notification if you switch away to another conversation.

OpenAI plans to add more capabilities to Pro over time to unlock more compute-intensive tasks. The company is also set to make 11 more announcements as part of its '12 Days of OpenAI'. Please download the iClarified app or follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and RSS for updates.
