Following a successful limited rollout, OpenAI has announced the worldwide availability of its low-cost subscription plan, ChatGPT Go. Initially introduced in India in August 2025, the plan has since expanded to 170 additional countries, becoming the company’s fastest-growing subscription tier.
The decision to roll ChatGPT Go out globally came after people in early markets started using it regularly for everyday things like writing, studying, creating images, and working through problems. Starting today, the plan is available anywhere ChatGPT is offered, costing $8 a month in the U.S., with localized prices in some other regions.
With this rollout, OpenAI now provides consumers with three defined subscription tiers worldwide:
- ChatGPT Go at $8 USD/month*
- ChatGPT Plus at $20 USD/month
- ChatGPT Pro at $200 USD/month
*US price displayed. Go pricing is localized in some markets.
Built to make more powerful AI accessible to a wider audience, ChatGPT Go gives users a noticeable step up from the free version, powered by the latest GPT-5.2 Instant model. Highlights include:
- 10x more messages, file uploads, and image creation compared to the free tier.
- A longer memory and context window, allowing ChatGPT to retain more helpful user details over time.
The new plan joins the existing ChatGPT Plus subscription, which targets more demanding reasoning tasks and includes access to advanced models such as GPT-5.2 Thinking, as well as ChatGPT Pro, which targets power users seeking maximum performance and early feature access.
To help keep ChatGPT accessible, OpenAI plans to start testing ads in the free tier and ChatGPT Go in the U.S. The company says ad revenue helps support free and lower-cost access, while Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise users won’t see ads.
