Pricing and availability
A free plan is available. Paid individual, business, education and enterprise plans provide different usage limits, model access and workspace features. Current plan names, prices and limits can change and should be checked on the official pricing page.
Platforms and integrations

OpenAI provides data controls and model-training opt-out options for eligible consumer accounts. Temporary Chats do not contribute to memory and are not used to train models. Retention, administrative controls and compliance features differ between consumer and business offerings, so sensitive information requires appropriate account settings and review.
