OpenAI Doubles ChatGPT Pro Usage Limits After Customer Backlash

Oct 30, 2026
OpenAI doubled usage limits for its Pro plans and Business Premium after reversing a planned reduction for Pro 200 subscribers. Limits for Dots will remain separate from default usage.

OpenAI doubled usage limits for its $100, $200, and $500 Pro plans and Business Premium, effective immediately, ChatGPT and Codex lead Tibo said on X, BleepingComputer reported. "We heard your kind feedback and won’t be reducing usage limits for Pro 200," he wrote. The company also reversed a planned usage reduction for existing Pro 200 subscribers after receiving customer feedback.

The limits cover ChatGPT Work and Codex, which share usage allowances under eligible subscriptions. OpenAI had planned to reduce the included allowance for Pro 200 subscribers after October 29 while keeping the price at $200 per month.

OpenAI will also continue providing extended limits for Dots. Usage by these always on assistants will remain separate from each subscriber's default allowance. The company did not provide numerical limits for the affected plans.
