OpenAI appears to be preparing a new ChatGPT Pro Max subscription that could cost $500 per month, but it's unclear when it'll begin rolling out.

OpenAI users, particularly power users, have been requesting more usage than the existing $200 plan offers for a while, so the $500 plan isn't just coming out of nowhere.

Right now, we don't know when you'll be able to subscribe to the $500 plan, but as spotted by TestingCatalog, the unannounced plan has started appearing in ChatGPT's subscription interface alongside Plus and existing Pro options.
