In the US, the plan is priced at $8 per month, with localized pricing offered in other regions.

ChatGPT Go was first introduced in India in August 2025 as a low-cost option aimed at broadening access to advanced AI features. Since launch, the plan has expanded to more than 170 countries. OpenAI said the early adoption supported its decision to make Go available worldwide.

With the global launch, ChatGPT now offers three consumer subscription tiers. ChatGPT Go provides expanded access to GPT 5.2 Instant, including higher message limits, more file uploads, increased image generation, and longer memory compared with the free tier.

ChatGPT Plus remains priced at $20 per month and targets deeper reasoning and productivity tasks, while ChatGPT Pro, priced at $200 per month, is designed for power users and advanced workflows.

OpenAI also plans to begin testing ads in the US on the free and Go tiers in the coming weeks. The company said ads will be clearly labeled and separated from responses, will not influence answers, and will not appear for users under 18 or near sensitive topics. Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise plans will remain ad free.
