OpenAI doubles usage limits on ChatGPT Pro 100, 200 and 500 and Business Premium

OpenAI's @thsottiaux, in a post that OpenAI's account reposted, said OpenAI is doubling all usage limits for the Pro 100, 200 and 500 tiers and for Business Premium, effective October 29. The post had about 9,000 likes and 2,200 replies on X by the same day.

According to the post:

• Pro 200: after feedback, OpenAI will not reduce its limits, so Work and Codex usage stays the same.
• Dots: extended limits for dots continue for now, and usage of a dot stays separate from default usage.
• Efficiency: OpenAI says it will keep shipping better models and efficiency improvements that raise effective usage over time.

In a reply, the author answered "Yes" to a user who asked whether the $500 plan gets 50x usage; the post itself does not give a multiple. On November 3 the same author answered another user, who had assumed the $500 plan gives 25x usage against 20x on the $200 plan, with "It's 50X".
