DevDay: New Plans and new platform for building AI apps

Picture: TestingCatalog

OpenAI appears to be preparing a new onboarding flow for its API platform, where developers will choose from three plans: Free, Prototype, and Accelerate. The Free tier targets developers experimenting with API ideas, offering free API access through Codex and limited access to Playgrounds. Prototype is positioned for building lightweight prototypes and small apps, with access to all models, higher usage, and broader access to Codex and Playgrounds. Accelerate targets production apps, starts at $50, includes all models, and offers higher usage and rate limits. What stands out is how OpenAI describes the platform around a progression from experimenting to prototyping and launching production apps. The wording suggests OpenAI wants Platform to become a broader development environment rather than primarily an API dashboard.
