About ChatGPT limits

ChatGPT enforces usage limits to manage server load and ensure fair access across all users. Limits vary significantly by plan tier — free plans are the most restricted while paid plans offer higher caps or unlimited access. Limits shown here are updated manually when OpenAI announces changes.
