OpenAI’s ChatGPT, an AI-powered chatbot platform, is constantly getting new functionality added to it. You may make chats more personalized by saving choices in the chatbot’s memory. You can also use ChatGPT’s improved voice mode to converse with the platform in near real-time. The GPT Store is an online marketplace for products and services driven by artificial intelligence.
You may be asking, “How much does ChatGPT cost?” The question is more difficult to answer than it first appears. ChatGPT is available for both premium and free plans from OpenAI, catering to a wide range of consumers including individuals, nonprofits, small and medium-sized businesses, educational institutions, and corporations.
In order to help you keep track of all the different ChatGPT membership choices, we have compiled a pricing guide. As new plans are introduced, we will keep it updated.
