OpenAI has announced the launch of Premium seats for ChatGPT Business. This system allows companies to assign higher-tier seats only to employees with high usage; reports indicate a pricing structure that is five times the standard rate.

Anthropic's Claude and Cursor had already implemented the ability to allocate higher-tier seats based on usage. With this move by OpenAI, the three major enterprise AI tool providers now share a similar pricing design.

Reports have compared the pricing, usage quotas, and actual configuration methods of the three companies. From the perspective of how this changes AI utilization within enterprises, the shift in cost design for the full-scale operational deployment of AI has been raised as a key point of discussion.
