  "textContent": "The current lineup is essentially:\n\nFree = 1x\n\nPlus ($25) = baseline paid tier\n\nPro ($100) = ~5x\n\nPro Max ($200) = ~20x\n\nMy concern is that the jump from $25 to $100 only delivers about 5x capacity.\n\nFor developers running coding agents, long reasoning sessions, and real production workloads, a $100 plan should feel like a major upgrade.\n\nPersonally, I think the structure should be closer to:\n\nPlus ($25) = 1x\n\nPro ($100) = 10x\n\nPro Max ($200) = 20x\n\nThe reason is simple: the AI landscape is changing fast.\n\nA year ago OpenAI’s lead was massive.\n\nToday, Chinese labs and open-source models are closing the gap at an incredible pace.\n\nIf competing models reach 90–95% of GPT-5.5’s capability while offering more generous usage limits, many developers won’t optimize for benchmark scores.\n\nThey’ll optimize for productivity and cost.\n\nOpenAI still has the best platform in my opinion.\n\nBut keeping builders on the platform may become more important than squeezing capacity out of the pricing tiers.",
