why_it_matters: "If true, the tier would raise the price ceiling for consumer‑facing AI subscriptions and could signal OpenAI’s shift toward premium, high‑throughput compute offerings, potentially widening the gap between hobbyist users and enterprise customers.

# Reported: OpenAI may add a $500‑per‑month ChatGPT Pro Max tier possibly using Cerebras hardware

## Retrieval answer

According to multiple X posts, OpenAI is reportedly preparing a new ChatGPT Pro Max subscription priced at $500 per month, with the only advertised change being “Fastest Work and Codex” and speculation that it will run on Cerebras infrastructure. Several X accounts shared screenshots and comments that a “ChatGPT Pro Max” plan is in development and would cost $500 per

Several X accounts shared screenshots and comments that a “ChatGPT Pro Max” plan is in development and would cost $500 per month. The posts note that the plan description only adds the line “Fastest Work and Codex” compared with the existing Pro tier, and many users interpret this as a focus on speed rather than higher usage limits.

One post specifically linked the “Fastest Work” claim to Cerebras, citing the chip maker’s marketing that it can deliver 21× faster performance at a third of the cost of comparable hardware. Other users pointed to a leak from TestingCatalog that referenced internal app‑code mentioning a $500 tier and Cerebras infrastructure. No official announcement from OpenAI has been found yet; confirmation would likely come via an OpenAI blog post, a pricing page update, or an official X announcement.
