OpenAI plans to reopen $200 Pro subscriptions September 30 with revised usage calculations

OpenAI said on September 29 that it would reopen $200 Pro subscriptions to new subscribers the next day and change how it calculates usage. It says the revised plan will work out to half the old plan’s dollar amount in API spend, but promises to keep the five-hour limit off. The company also plans to add unspecified features that won’t draw on usage and says model improvements will let subscribers get more work done over time.
