OpenAI has closed a yawning gap in its ChatGPT subscription pricing with a new $100 per month Pro plan<\/a> that slots between the $20 per month Plus plan and $200 per month Pro plan. Offering five times more Codex than the $20 option, it appears designed to challenge Anthropic’s $100 per month Claude option. “Compared with Claude Code, Codex delivers more coding capacity per dollar across paid tiers,” an OpenAI spokesperson told TechCrunch<\/em><\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

So what’s the difference between OpenAI’s two Pro plans? The $200 version does offer four times the Codex. However, you get the same advanced tools and models with $100 plan, according to OpenAI’s product page. To encourage users to jump in, it will offer double the Codex for a limited time, or 10 times what you get with the Plus plan.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Users have been screaming for such a plan for a while now, according to posts<\/a> on OpenAI’s developer community forums. “The Plus plan will continue to be the best offer at $20 for steady, day-to-day usage of Codex, and the new $100 Pro tier offers a more accessible upgrade path for heavier daily use,” OpenAI said in a post on X<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With the launch of GPT 5.2 late last year and GPT-5.3-Codex<\/a> in February, OpenAI significantly boosted the speed and reasoning capabilities of Codex, giving developers a tough choice between ChatGPT and Claude Opus. However, the sticking point for many power users was ChatGPT’s $200 per month price \u2014 so OpenAI no doubt hopes the new plan will convince those on the fence to switch.\u00a0<\/p>\n
