OpenAI GPT 5 / What's new in OpenAI's GPT 5, is it free or will you have to pay?

OpenAI has launched its most powerful AI model ever, GPT-5, which is available to all users. Paid subscribers will get access to GPT-5 Pro, which will give more advanced reasoning and accurate answers. There is a limit for free users and the rollout is ongoing.

OpenAI GPT 5: OpenAI has launched its latest and most advanced AI model, GPT-5, which the company has described as the smartest, fastest, and most useful model ever. The model promises to make expert-level intelligence accessible to everyone. GPT-5 is now available to all users, but users with a paid subscription will get additional access to GPT-5 Pro, which provides even more advanced reasoning, more detailed, and accurate answers.

GPT-5 availability: Free or paid?

GPT-5 has been made available to all users - Free, Plus, Pro, Team, and Enterprise. If you are a free user of ChatGPT, access to GPT-5 is open to you too. OpenAI has announced that the model will be available to Enterprise and Education (Edu) customers within a week.

However, there are some limitations for users:

  • Paid users: Can use GPT-5 and GPT-5 Pro without any limits.
  • Team, Enterprise, and Edu customers: Can use GPT-5 as the default model for their daily tasks.
Free users: There is a usage limit for these. If a user exceeds this limit, they will automatically be switched to GPT-5 Mini, a smaller but still capable model.

According to OpenAI, the rollout of GPT-5 has begun, but it may take a few days for its full reasoning capabilities to be available to free users.

How to access GPT-5?

All you need to do to start using GPT-5 is:

Sign in to ChatGPT.

Once you sign in, GPT-5 will be automatically available to you.

OpenAI claims that GPT-5 is a significant leap in intelligence in coding, writing, math, health, and many other areas compared to its previous models. This model is not only faster but is also capable of giving more accurate and useful answers.

GPT-5 Pro: A step ahead

GPT-5 Pro is an added advantage for users with a paid subscription. This model is specially designed for tasks that require complex reasoning and in-depth analysis. Be it coding, data analysis, or creative writing, GPT-5 Pro promises better performance in every field.
