How much does a ChatGPT subscription cost?

ChatGPT's individual lineup as of Oct 2026: Free ($0), Go ($8/month), Plus ($20/month), and three Pro tiers — Pro 100 ($100/month), Pro 200 ($200/month), Pro 500 ($500/month) — named for their price. Business is $25/user/month (2-seat minimum). The right tier is a usage question: Go covers everyday chat at a third of Plus's price; Plus is the standard for GPT-5-class access and image generation; the Pro tiers buy massively higher limits and priority frontier-model access for people who hit Plus ceilings daily. A year of Plus is $240 — more than most people expect when they see '$20'.
