OpenAI’s “12 days of shipmas” event doesn’t kick off for a few hours, but the first big announcement might’ve been revealed early.
A staging page on a website used by OpenAI refers to a “ChatGPT Pro” plan that includes all the benefits of ChatGPT Plus, as well as new goodies.

According to the page, which was discovered by software engineer Tibor Blaho, ChatGPT Pro provides unlimited access to all of OpenAI’s models — including the full version of its o1 “reasoning” model, o1-mini, and GPT-4o.
Also included in ChatGPT Pro is unlimited access to Advanced Voice Mode, ChatGPT’s human-like conversational feature, and a new “o1 pro mode,” which “uses more compute for the best answers to the hardest questions,” according to the page.
All this might come at a hefty price, however. Per the page, ChatGPT Pro starts at $200 per month or £200/€229, depending on the region. User who upgrade from ChatGPT Plus to Pro will get a prorated credit for the remainder of their subscription.
That’d make ChatGPT Pro easily OpenAI’s most expensive subscription plan yet — and 10x the cost of ChatGPT Plus.
A separate leaked page uncovered by Blaho contains another surprise: mention of what could be OpenAI’s next major model. According to the page, subscribers to OpenAI’s ChatGPT Team plan will soon get access to a “limited preview” of “GPT-4.5.”

We’ll have confirmation soon enough, with any luck.
