TREE NEWS reports: OpenAI has renamed its ChatGPT Pro “5x” and “20x” plans to “Pro Standard” and “Pro More”, and removed the specific 5x/20x Plus usage descriptions from its pricing page. Community users say the top subscription tier may cost $500 and correspond to a “Pro Max” level. The changes are widely seen as a prelude to a new round of ChatGPT subscription plans that could tier users by AI usage intensity rather than simple usage multipliers.
OpenAI Renames ChatGPT Pro Tiers to Pro Standard and Pro More
The removal of explicit usage multipliers matters more than the new labels: it shifts the subscription pitch from measurable capacity to vague intensity tiers, giving OpenAI room to reprice and repackage without contradicting published figures. That flexibility cuts both ways for users, who lose a clear benchmark for comparing plans. The community's speculation about a higher-priced top tier is the tell — this looks like positioning ahead of a broader restructuring. Whether the multiplier language returns, or usage-based tiering becomes the norm across AI subscriptions, is the open question worth watching.
