OpenAI has introduced a new Premium seat option for ChatGPT Business customers, offering up to five times more usage capacity than standard subscriptions at $125 per user per month.
The new tier removes the five-hour usage limit on standard Business seats and is also available through annual billing at $100 per user per month. Standard ChatGPT Business seats remain priced at $25 per user per month, or $20 per user per month when billed annually.
The company said the Premium option is designed for businesses that require greater capacity for intensive tasks, including inventory management, marketing campaign development, business performance analysis, customer experience improvements and product development.
Business workspace owners can combine Standard and Premium seats within the same workspace and assign different tiers to employees according to their individual usage requirements.
OpenAI said Premium seats come with predictable weekly usage resets, while businesses can purchase additional shared workspace credits when they require more capacity.
The company is also offering a limited-time promotion to the first 10,000 eligible ChatGPT Business customers who join the Premium waitlist.
Under the offer, qualifying customers will receive $100 worth of workspace credits, equivalent to 2,500 credits, for every Premium seat added, with a maximum of five seats and $500 in credits per workspace.
The promotion runs until 20 August. Some customers who join the waitlist may receive early access to Premium seats ahead of the general release.
To qualify for the promotional offer, workspace owners must join the waitlist using the email address associated with their ChatGPT Business account.
OpenAI said the new Premium option follows requests from ChatGPT Business customers for greater usage capacity as businesses increasingly use AI for operational, analytical and product-development activities.
