Recently, OpenAI has revealed its intention to roll out a novel subscription service for ChatGPT, dubbed "ChatGPT Pro Lite," with a monthly price tag of $100. This move is tailored to cater to users who seek enhanced performance yet are reluctant to shoulder the expenses associated with the Pro-tier subscription. Positioned as a middle ground between the current Plus subscription (priced at $20 per month) and the Pro subscription (costing $200 per month), this new offering is anticipated to grant users a usage quota for advanced deep-thinking models (like the o1/o3 series) that is three to five times greater than that of the Plus version. However, it may not encompass the professional mode (SOTA Mode), a feature exclusive to the Pro version. As of now, OpenAI has yet to officially disclose the precise launch date and the complete array of benefits that this new subscription service will entail.
