Demand for ChatGPT Agent is so high, Plus users can’t even try it yet
OpenAI released its newest AI feature on Thursday. It's called ChatGPT Agent, and it’s a model that combines the best of ChatGPT, Deep Research, and Operator. It uses natural language, which is the core of ChatGPT, can perform deep internet searches (the foundation of Deep Research), and can navigate the web on the user’s behalf, like Operator.
Unlike Operator, an AI agent that OpenAI released in early 2025, ChatGPT Agent will be available to the more affordable ChatGPT subscription tiers. Operator was reserved for ChatGPT Pro, which costs $200/month. As a ChatGPT Plus user in Europe, I never wanted to pay that much for premium AI use.
Agent changes that, as OpenAI made it available to Plus and Team users from the start. They’ll face lower limits, but they can also purchase additional access if needed.
That said, ChatGPT Agent is proving so popular with Pro users that OpenAI had to delay the rollout for Plus and Team subscribers.
