Plan limits

ChatGPT Voice limits: 3 hours in any 24 on Plus, 15 or unlimited on Pro

Live voice in ChatGPT is counted over a rolling 24-hour window: 3 hours on Go and Plus, 15 hours on the $100 Pro plan and no cap on the $200 one. Free gets limited access to the smaller GPT-Live-1 mini.

Checked against the lab's own pages on October 2, 2026. Limits change often, so the date matters.

OpenAI's ChatGPT Voice help page has a plain table for this, and the unit is hours. Live voice usage is measured over a rolling 24-hour period, which means there's no midnight reset: time you used at 9pm comes back at 9pm the next day. ChatGPT tells you when you reach the limit.

What each plan gets

Go and Plus both get three hours, but they don't get the same voice. Go runs on GPT-Live-1 mini, the smaller model, and Plus gets GPT-Live-1. Free also uses the mini model, with "limited access" and no number; OpenAI's table adds that those limits may change.

The gap between the two Pro tiers is bigger than the price gap. The $100 plan has 15 hours, and the $200 plan has no cap on GPT-Live-1 at all.

Business, Enterprise and Edu

Business Standard gets three hours and Business Premium 15, and on both, anything past that costs 1.25 credits per minute. Enterprise, Edu and Clinicians on credit-based pricing pay 1.25 credits per minute from the start, while Enterprise on usage-based dollar pricing pays $0.05 a minute. K-12 Teachers and legacy Enterprise and Edu plans get three hours.

Voice inside Work (ChatGPT's mode for building documents and working with connected apps) follows the same Voice limits, and the tasks count toward your normal Work usage as if you'd typed them. Voice in the desktop app is priced separately, on its own page.

Which voice options these hours cover

The table is for Live, the option under Settings, then Voice, that can listen and speak at the same time. Live can't share video or your screen. For that you switch to Advanced, the older real-time mode, on the iOS or Android app, and the page says video and screen sharing have limits of their own; when you hit one of those you may still be able to keep talking. The help page gives no hours for Advanced or for Standard, the turn-by-turn mode that transcribes you first.

A voice call left running in the background ends when you hit the usage limit or the maximum session length, whichever comes first. For the caps on messages and files, see the other plan limits.
