OpenAI will pool ChatGPT and Codex into one token-based usage allowance starting in December for Plus, Pro, and Business; Instant chat is excluded
On Oct 31, OpenAI's Help Center added a page titled "Understanding ChatGPT and Codex usage limits": starting in December, the usage allowance on Plus, Pro, and Business plans will be shared across ChatGPT and Codex as OpenAI brings the agentic capabilities of Work into the main ChatGPT experience. Usage will be measured in tokens, so stronger models and more complex tasks use more; Instant chat will not draw from the allowance. Users will see combined remaining usage and reset times in Settings > Usage, and can wait for a reset, upgrade, or buy credits when they run out. OpenAI says it expects most users will not need to wait for resets more often than they do now, but it has not given an exact start date or per-plan allowances. The news drew strong concern from Plus users on X.
