Perplexity Max is $200 per month or $2,000 per year. Enterprise Pro is $40 per month. ChatGPT Business Standard is $25 per seat per month.

The Perplexity Pro check day in this dataset is Nov 12, 2026. The ChatGPT Plus check day is Nov 12, 2026. Both monthly list prices are $20, and only Perplexity Pro stores an annual effective rate here.

This page does not invent a Perplexity Free dollar or a ChatGPT Plus annual invoice. Feature depth beyond the stored plan rows is out of scope.

Paid links are omitted here because neither vendor has a live partner placement on TierFacts for these consumer tiers.

ChatGPT: Pro 100 / Pro 200 / Pro 500 / Business

OpenAI says eligible paid ChatGPT Pro and Business subscriptions can claim free OpenAI API credits for one linked API organization. Pro 100, Pro 200, and Pro 500 get $100, $200, and $500 per monthly billing period. Business gets $20 per paid Standard seat and $100 per paid Premium seat, pooled and capped at $500 per workspace each month. The subscription must be paid, at least seven days old, and owned by the same email as the API organization. Unused credits expire at the end of each billing cycle, and Plus, trials, Enterprise, and Edu do not qualify. Prices did not change.

ChatGPT: Plus / Pro / Business

OpenAI says that starting in December 2026, the usage allowance on Plus, Pro, and Business plans will be shared across ChatGPT and Codex and measured in tokens. More advanced models and complex tasks use more of it. Instant chat will not draw from it. OpenAI has not published a start day or the size of each plan's allowance, and the article announces no price change.

ChatGPT: Pro 100 / Pro 200 / Pro 500

OpenAI cancelled the Pro 200 reduction announced Sep 29, 2026. Pro 200 subscribers on the lower allowance had it doubled, so every Pro 200 subscription now has the same Work and Codex allowance. Pro 100 and Pro 500 now include twice their previous Work and Codex allowance. Prices did not change: Pro 100 is $100, Pro 200 is $200, and Pro 500 is $500 per month.

ChatGPT: Pro 100 / Pro 200 / Pro 500
