OpenAI is increasing usage allowances for its Pro 100, Pro 200, and Pro 500 plans, as well as Business Premium, with the change taking effect immediately. The announcement presents the expansion as a response to customer feedback and makes clear that Pro 200 users will not face a previously considered reduction. Their Work and Codex usage will therefore remain at its existing level, despite the broader changes to plan limits.
The message also says extended limits for “dots” will continue for now, and that dot usage will remain separate from each user’s default allowance. Beyond these immediate policy decisions, OpenAI plans to keep improving its models and making efficiency gains, which it says should increase the amount users can accomplish over time. The main point is a near-term increase in access across several paid tiers, paired with a commitment not to cut Pro 200 usage and to preserve separate dot allowances.
