OpenAI is now selling revival tokens, and if you run out of credits, no worries—$8 to revive on the spot Reddit already has a $20/month Plus reset option. Once you’ve used up your credits, you don’t need to upgrade to Pro or wait for the next cycle. Just pay $8, and you can instantly reset your Codex usage limit. Plus itself is only $20/month, but a single reset costs $8, which is 40% of the monthly fee. Not sure what the final pricing will be, but at the current rate, it’s insanely expensive. Let’s assume Codex has 3 million weekly active heavy users in the future. Even if only 10% of them buy a $8 reset once a week, that’s about $2.4 million in weekly revenue, or $125 million annualized in extra transactions. If all 3 million users buy one reset, that’s $24 million per week, annualized to over $1.2 billion. The pricing model for AI software is increasingly looking like subscriptions + data packages: the base subscription keeps you on board, while heavy usage is charged separately via credits, limits, or resets.
