OpenAI pauses new subscriptions for the $200 Pro plan Tibo, OpenAI Codex Product Lead, confirmed in a post that the company will suspend new subscriptions for the $200 Pro plan to ensure the experience of existing users and the continued availability of Astra. This plan puts the most strain on the system, and this move is the minimum necessary measure to guarantee the widest access. All other plans and APIs remain available as usual, and existing accounts are not affected. The company is working hard to expand computing power.
