Plus is the mainstream tier; Pro buys much higher limits and the heaviest reasoning; Team and Enterprise add collaboration and admin.

Subscription vs pay-as-you-go API
The ChatGPT subscription and the OpenAI API are billed separately: the subscription is a flat rate for the chat app, while the API meters tokens for building apps. For heavy interactive chat the flat plan is usually cheaper; for programmatic or bursty use, compare token cost with the per-prompt calculator.
