Is Upgrading Your ChatGPT Plan Worth It? Here's What You Need to Know

artificial intelligence Jan 06, 2025

When ChatGPT First Launched, It Was Free

Since then, OpenAI has come up with multiple paid plans for ChatGPT.

And one of the biggest questions I always get is...

"John!! Should I upgrade and if so, which plan should I upgrade to?"

ChatGPT currently has 4 different plans for you to choose from:

  • Free plan
  • Plus plan ($20 per month)
  • Pro plan ($200 per month)
  • Team plan ($25 per user per month, need at least two users)

Now the main difference between the free plan and the others is access to advanced features and how much you could use them.

Let Me Break Down a Big Misconception

Upgrading to one of the paid plans WILL NOT improve ChatGPT's responses!

If your responses sound generic or robotic, it's because you don't know how to prompt engineer—which is a fancy way of saying you don't know how to write good prompts.

So if you're thinking of upgrading just to get better responses...DON'T.

Here's When You Should Consider Upgrading

You're hitting the daily usage limit.

Upgrading to a paid plan without maximizing your results with the free plan is like that one kid who shows up to the basketball tryout with the headband, arm sleeves, and all the new gear

But never makes the team because he isn't good at basketball.

ChatGPT has a lot of amazing features, so it's easy to get shiny object syndrome. And aside from the pro plan, it's really inexpensive.

If you want to get better at using ChatGPT, I have hours of training on my YouTube channel, walking you through step-by-step.

Now, If You Are Ready to Upgrade, Here Are the Big Differences Between the 3 Plans

Free vs Plus: You get access to more/better features. Access to better ChatGPT models. Higher daily usage limits. And first dibs to try out new updates.

Plus is good for you if you already are using ChatGPT consistently and want to take it to the next level.

Plus vs. Team: They're pretty much the same plan. With Team, you get an admin console and more features to seamlessly collaborate with other team members. You need at least two users for Team and it's a little more money.

Team is good for you if you have an admin, assistant, business partner, etc., that also uses ChatGPT and you want to be on the same page.

Plus vs Pro: With Pro, you get exclusive access to the best ChatGPT plan that has ever been created—version 01 pro mode. The daily usage limits for almost everything are removed. Pro is also 10x more expensive.

Pro is good for you if you are an AI guru, programmer, developer, etc., who wants to push AI to its limit. Wouldn’t recommend for 99% of people, including myself.
