The new ChatGPT Pro subscription tier, available now, costs $200 a month.

OpenAI also unveiled o1 pro mode, which is an exclusive feature for ChatGPT Pro that can handle more compute for complex math, programming, and writing problems. OpenAI says o1 pro mode performs better on machine learning benchmarks for math, coding, and PhD-level science questions. ChatGPT Pro is built for "power users," said CEO Sam Altman. Given the level of complexity for tasks, o1 pro mode will take longer to respond, which is why it will show a progress bar.

The price hike is not entirely unexpected. According to a report from the New York Times, OpenAI is considering raising the cost of the ChatGPT Plus subscription to $44 a month over the next five years. OpenAI has ambitious (some may argue unrealistic) goals of tripling its revenue by next year and $100 billion by 2029. Users can expect to OpenAI to start milking more money out of its products. The ChatGPT maker is also considering an ad model.

As of today, o1 is fully released. The reasoning model which was previously available as a limited preview is now live for ChatGPT Plus and Teams users with Edu and Enterprise users getting access next week.
