Modeled value estimate caveat

Any dollar-equivalent figure on this page is PlanetGPU modeling, not an official vendor entitlement. Prefer the published quota, overage behavior, transparency, and source links when making a purchase decision.

Included usage / quota

Codex included with Plus. Published 5-hour examples: GPT-5.5 local messages 15-80, GPT-5.4 20-100, GPT-5.4 mini 60-350. Weekly limits may apply.

Overage

ChatGPT credits after included limits; Codex credit burn maps to token-based rate card.

Best for

Solo developers doing a few focused coding sessions each week.

Supported models

GPT-5.5GPT-5.4GPT-5.4 miniGPT-5.3-Codex

Surfaces

Web, CLI, VS Code IDE extension, iOS, Slack, GitHub review

Modeled estimate is unofficial

Modeled estimate ~$20 (medium confidence). Included usage may be more useful than equivalent direct API spend for active coding, but the official entitlement is quota/credits, not dollars.

Caveats

  • API-key auth enables local CLI/IDE usage but removes cloud features like GitHub review and Slack.

Modeled estimate is unofficial

Modeled estimate ~$100 (medium confidence). May exceed equivalent direct API spend under heavy use, but results vary by model, context, output, and fast mode.

Caveats

Surfaces

Web, CLI, VS Code IDE extension, iOS, Slack, GitHub review

Modeled estimate is unofficial

Modeled estimate ~$14,000 (low confidence). High-utilization secondary estimate, not an official OpenAI entitlement. Official source publishes usage windows and credit rates, not a dollar value.

Caveats

  • Treat the modeled API-spend estimate as a ceiling-style estimate for heavy use, not guaranteed monthly value.
