OpenAI is merging its ChatGPT and Work services, combining their usage allowances for Plus, Pro, and Business subscribers. This change, set to take effect in December, means that subscribers will have a single gauge for both services, with more complex tasks consuming more of the allowance. Instant chat will not count against the usage limit. The move aims to integrate advanced capabilities into the main ChatGPT experience, allowing users to carry out substantial projects directly from a conversation. However, the change has sparked concerns among users, with some expressing frustration over the potential reduction in value for their subscriptions. OpenAI has not disclosed the exact size of the new allowances, leaving customers to monitor their usage closely. The company plans to test the combined experience with a small group of users before a wider rollout.
OpenAI is also retiring its ChatGPT Classic app on January 30, 2027, encouraging users to switch to the new desktop app that integrates ChatGPT, Work, and Codex.
