# ChatGPT Go vs Plus vs Pro: what each plan adds > ChatGPT Go, Plus and Pro compared from OpenAI's own pages: what Go leaves out, what Plus and Pro add, Codex on each plan, and ads on Go. Updated: 2026-11-02 Go, Plus and Pro are OpenAI's three paid ChatGPT plans for individuals. Go raises the free plan's tool limits and context window, and like Free it may show ads. Plus adds the advanced reasoning models and more deep research and Codex, with no ads. Pro has three tiers for heavy use. Pick by the features you need. ## How much do Go, Plus and Pro cost? These are the monthly list prices on OpenAI's website in the US, each row with its source and the date we checked it: | Plan | Market and channel | Official price | Billing | Source | Checked | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ChatGPT Go | United States · Vendor website | $8 | per month | https://openai.com/index/introducing-chatgpt-go/ | 2026-10-31 | | ChatGPT Plus | United States · Vendor website | $20 | per month | https://help.openai.com/en/articles/6950777-what-is-chatgpt-plus | 2026-10-31 | | ChatGPT Pro 100 | United States · Vendor website | $100 | per month | https://help.openai.com/en/articles/9793128-about-chatgpt-pro-tiers | 2026-10-31 | | ChatGPT Pro 200 | United States · Vendor website | $200 | per month | https://help.openai.com/en/articles/9793128-about-chatgpt-pro-tiers | 2026-10-31 | | ChatGPT Pro 500 | United States · Vendor website | $500 | per month | https://help.openai.com/en/articles/9793128-about-chatgpt-pro-tiers | 2026-10-31 | The vendors' own prices as published at the source on the date checked; they can change. - **Your price can differ.** OpenAI bills in US dollars, with local-currency billing in a limited set of countries, and the App Store or Google Play can show another price. Local prices are in [ChatGPT Plus price in Egypt](https://5abeer.ai/en/guides/chatgpt-plus-price-egypt) and [ChatGPT and Claude prices in Saudi Arabia and the UAE](https://5abeer.ai/en/guides/chatgpt-claude-gulf-price). - **Monthly only.** OpenAI's help center says Go, Plus and Pro have no annual billing and no way to pay months in advance. You cancel where you paid: chatgpt.com, the App Store or Google Play. ## What does Go leave out compared with Plus? The gap between Go and Plus is in models, speed and some tools, not in the context window. This is how OpenAI's [pricing page](https://chatgpt.com/pricing) compares the two, as we read it on 2026-11-02: | | ChatGPT Go | ChatGPT Plus | | --- | --- | --- | | Ads | May include ads | No ads | | Models | Luna, plus Think on the web and in the mobile app | Adds Sol in Chat, Astra and Sol 6.1 in ChatGPT Work and Codex, and older models | | Response speed | Limited by bandwidth and availability | Fast | | Deep research | Limited | Expanded | | Image creation | Included, without image generation with Thinking | Adds image generation with Thinking | | Interactive tables and charts, Sites, Developer mode (beta) | Not included | Included | | Excel, Word, PowerPoint and Google Sheets extensions | Limited | Included | | ChatGPT Work | Limited, in the desktop app | Desktop, web and mobile | | Codex | Limited, in the desktop app | Adds web, CLI, IDE extension and iOS | | Context window, Instant / reasoning | 54K / 256K | 54K / 256K | Both plans include file uploads, data analysis, vision, projects, scheduled tasks and voice with video, and Plus has more memory, messages and uploads. Since the context window is the same, a document of about 320 pages fits in reasoning mode on Go just as on Plus. **About ads on Go.** OpenAI's help center says ads may appear on Free and Go, below a response and clearly labelled, while Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Edu show none. Testing began in the US on February 9, 2026 and is rolling out to select regions. Ads stay away from sensitive topics such as health and politics, and you can turn off ad personalisation under Ads controls in Settings. ## What does Pro add over Plus? Pro keeps everything in Plus. OpenAI's pricing page and its Pro help article list what it adds: - Three usage tiers, Pro 100, Pro 200 and Pro 500, each named after its monthly price in US dollars. Each higher tier includes more usage, and only Pro 500 includes Ultrafast. - Pro reasoning in Chat, and longer Codex and ChatGPT Work sessions. - A larger context window: 128K in Instant mode and 400K in reasoning mode. - Dot, OpenAI's always-on agent, and ChatGPT Space. - Monthly API credits that match the number in the tier's name. They need activation, and unused credits expire at the end of each billing cycle.

Codex, OpenAI's coding agent, comes with every ChatGPT plan, and ChatGPT Work draws on the same usage. OpenAI's [Codex pricing page](https://learn.chatgpt.com/docs/pricing) lists: | Plan | Codex on that plan | | --- | --- | | Free | Quick coding tasks in the desktop app, subject to rollout | | Go | Lightweight coding tasks in the desktop app, subject to rollout | | Plus | Adds web, CLI, IDE extension and iOS, with models including Astra and Sol 6.1, and a five-hour limit on local messages that varies by model | | Pro | Longer sessions, no five-hour limit for now, and Ultrafast on Pro 500 | OpenAI pitches Plus for "a few focused coding sessions each week". Weekly limits may also apply, cloud tasks can use more of your allowance than local work, and on Plus and Pro you can buy credits to keep going after a limit. To run Codex on an API key instead, read [Run Codex CLI with an API key](https://5abeer.ai/en/guides/codex-cli-api-key). ## Which plan should you choose? - **Free** if you mostly chat in text: OpenAI doesn't cap everyday text chats on Free or Go beyond abuse guardrails. - **Go** if you upload files, analyse data or create images every week, and ads don't bother you. - **Plus** if you need Astra or Sol, more deep research, Codex beyond the desktop app, or no ads. - **Pro** if you hit the Plus limits most days or need Pro reasoning. Start at Pro 100 and move up if you still run out, or to Pro 500 if you need Ultrafast. - **A 5abeer Bundle plan** if you work every day in ChatGPT Desktop or Codex on a computer, especially alongside Claude Code or Google Antigravity. ## Is there a cheaper way to use ChatGPT for work? If you use ChatGPT on a computer for work, 5abeer's Bundle plans run ChatGPT Desktop and Codex, plus Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Google Antigravity. Subscribe to the official apps for less than their official price. These are our plan prices, as on the [pricing page](https://5abeer.ai/en/pricing), in your currency: Current 5abeer Bundle plan prices are on the pricing page: https://5abeer.ai/en/pricing - **Desktop apps, not the phone app.** A 5abeer plan runs ChatGPT Desktop and Codex through the 5abeer AI app on Mac, Windows and Linux, not inside the ChatGPT phone app. - Every Bundle plan runs every official app, from the smallest to the largest. The plans differ in usage limits only: a 5-hour limit and a weekly limit, as in [Usage limits](https://5abeer.ai/en/docs/subscriptions/limits.md). - On your own official account: Codex asks for your own ChatGPT account, and Google Antigravity for your own Google account. - 5abeer's Pro, Max (formerly Max 5x) and Ultra (formerly Max 20x) are 5abeer's plans, so 5abeer's Pro is not ChatGPT Pro. 5abeer is an independent service, not affiliated with OpenAI, Anthropic or Google. To start, pay the way that suits you ([Payment methods](https://5abeer.ai/en/docs/start/payment.md)), install the 5abeer AI app, then press **Use 5abeer with** next to ChatGPT Desktop or Codex. Activated within minutes. The full steps are in [How the subscription works](https://5abeer.ai/en/docs/subscriptions/how-it-works.md). > Plans are for the supported apps. To use the models from your own code, create an API key. ## Frequently asked questions ### Is ChatGPT Go worth it if I only chat in text? Usually not. Free already covers everyday text chats. Go pays off when you need more file uploads, data analysis, image creation, memory or context than the free plan gives you. ### How can I use ChatGPT without ads? Plus and Pro have no ads, and Temporary Chats show none on any plan. Where ads are being tested, the Free plan also offers an ad-free mode with lower message limits and without some tools, such as image generation and deep research. ### Can I move from Plus or Pro down to Go? Yes, from Settings, then Account, in ChatGPT. Your current plan stays active until the end of the billing cycle you paid for, then your account moves to Go at Go's price. If you subscribed through the App Store or Google Play, check the change in that store too. ### Is ChatGPT Go sold in every country? OpenAI says Go is available in every country where ChatGPT is supported. Purchases are in US dollars, with local-currency billing in a limited set of countries, and OpenAI says it may adjust Go's price over time. ### Does a 5abeer plan replace Go, Plus or Pro? Not one for one. A 5abeer Bundle plan runs ChatGPT Desktop, Codex and the other official apps on your computer, with 5abeer's own limits. It doesn't run in the ChatGPT phone app, and its plan names are 5abeer's, not OpenAI's. ## Sources Checked on 2026-11-02.
