AI company OpenAI has introduced a new premium service tier. The Pro 500 package, priced at $500 per month, was unveiled during the company's DevDay event.

The new tier provides the highest usage limits and exclusive access to Astra Ultrafast, which OpenAI describes as its fastest model. In ChatGPT Work and Codex applications, the model's speed can reach up to eight times that of the standard Astra model.

OpenAI also announced that its Pro 200 tier is reopening for new subscribers. The company clarified that Astra Ultrafast is exclusively available within the Pro 500 package.

This pricing strategy reflects the increasing demand for high-performance AI models in enterprise settings. It also suggests OpenAI's approach to cater to diverse user needs and budgets with tiered service offerings.
