Request for a $50 ChatGPT Pro Lite Plan with Higher Codex Limits
Hello OpenAI Team,
I would like to suggest introducing a new ChatGPT subscription tier priced around $40–$50 per month, positioned between Plus and Pro.
I’m currently paying for two ChatGPT Plus accounts because I use Codex extensively for website development, business projects, and other daily tasks.
While ChatGPT Plus is excellent, the five-hour usage restrictions and weekly Codex limits can interrupt development workflows, especially when working on large projects that require continuous coding, testing, and troubleshooting.
I would happily upgrade to ChatGPT Pro, but the jump from $20 to $100 per month is significant, particularly for independent developers and small business owners.
My suggestion is to introduce a ChatGPT Pro Lite plan at approximately $50/month, offering:
-
Higher Codex usage allowances, ideally 3–5 times those of Plus.
-
More generous five-hour usage windows, or preferably no five-hour restriction.
-
Increased weekly Codex limits for continuous development.
-
Access to existing Codex development tools without requiring the full Pro subscription.
-
A predictable monthly subscription without constantly needing additional credits.
I believe there is a large group of users who have outgrown Plus but cannot justify the price of Pro.
In my case, I’m already spending $40 monthly on two Plus accounts. I would much rather consolidate that spending into one $50 subscription that offers greater Codex capacity and a smoother development experience.
A mid-tier plan would make upgrading more accessible while giving OpenAI an opportunity to serve users who are willing to pay more for additional capacity.
I genuinely appreciate the work OpenAI has done with ChatGPT and Codex. These tools have become an important part of my daily workflow, and I hope the team will seriously consider this suggestion.
Is there any possibility of introducing a mid-tier subscription in the future?
Thank you for listening to your users and continuing to improve the platform.
