According to Sam Altman on X (formerly Twitter), OpenAI now allows users to buy additional Codex credits once subscription limits are reached, as detailed in his announcement (source: x.com/OpenAIDevs/status/1983956896852988014). This move targets AI developers requiring compute-intensive features, offering a scalable pricing model that lowers barriers for mainstream users while unlocking greater usage and revenue opportunities for power users. The flexible credit system is poised to drive wider Codex adoption in enterprise AI coding automation, supporting use cases like software development, code generation, and workflow automation. This approach enables businesses to better manage AI operational costs and scale their use of advanced AI-powered tools as needed.
