What happened

Between the Feb 23, 2026 and Mar 2, 2026 captures of OpenAI's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: All public prices removed from ChatGPT pricing page: Free ($0/mo), Go ($8/mo), Plus ($20/mo), Pro ($200/mo), Business ($25/user/mo annually) — prices no longer displayed. Pulse files it as a pricing change (price hidden) with a downward direction. Pulse's latest capture (Oct 18, 2026) lists Go at $8, Plus at $20, Business at $20 and Pro at $100.
