[request] Pro Gives Only ~2x the Weekly Limit? #3900

Closed

Description

@PabloLION

What feature would you like to see?

  • I have a ChatGPT Plus account, reached the weekly limit after some usage
  • I upgraded to Pro plan, reached the weekly limit after again after the similar usage
  • Need more transparency, it's possible a bug? In https://developers.openai.com/codex/pricing/#plus I only see this:
    • Plus, Local tasks: Average users can send 30-150 messages every 5 hours with a weekly limit.
    • Pro, Local tasks: Average users can send 300-1,500 messages every 5 hours with a weekly limit.
  • I thought Pro would have 10x weekly limit but truth is I only get about 2x?

If everyone gets different Pro weekly limit, it would be unfair. I'm requesting a more precise description on this "weekly limit". The current docs on pricing is too vague for pro users to know what we are paying for. The good thing is we have much more generous 5h limit than Claude Code, so the true package of the subscription is the weekly limit, yet we cannot know anything about it.

I didn't ask for the "overall cross-dialogue token usage" as many have asked in other issues. I'm requesting an update in the docs.

Are you interested in implementing this feature?

Yes, once I know the data I can PR the docs.

Additional information

my friend asked me if I had this same problem and I don't think it's 2x

    ■ You've hit your usage limit. Upgrade to Pro (https://openai.com/chatgpt/pricing) or try again in 2 days 22 hours 51 minutes.

    This Probably is intentional misleading to grab devs as customers. in my opinion just use Claude. 5h is fine but 5 days is fucked up

    Pro subscriptions give a little bit above 10X usage compared to the plus subscription right now.
