As part of that Indian launch, OpenAI announced a limited time promotion for its ChatGPT Go subscription– ChatGPT Go will be free for one year to users in India. Beginning November 4, this program allows customers to enroll in the service for free. This artificial intelligence company’s decision reaffirms India’s standing as one of the AI company’s most crucial markets.
ChatGPT Go, which was released in India this past August, is OpenAI’s cheapest paid subscriptions plan by far. For under $5 a month, you unlock five times more usage than the complimentary tier. This update greatly enhances your ability to create immersive text-based explorations, produce beautiful multimedia creations, and easily upload a variety of file types. The plan meets the growing public demand for cutting-edge AI tools. It zooms in on one especially compelling country with a population both big and young.
For the duration of the promotional period, existing subscribers of ChatGPT Go can take advantage of this special offer. They’ll receive a free 12-month offer! In just a matter of months since OpenAI launched ChatGPT, India has become OpenAI’s second-largest market after the U.S. Now millions of those users interact with that same chatbot every day. The country boasts over 700 million smartphone users and more than a billion internet subscribers, making it a fertile ground for AI interactions.
Nick Turley welcomed the initiative.
“Since initially launching ChatGPT Go in India a few months ago, the adoption and creativity we’ve seen from our users has been inspiring,” – Nick Turley.
He further stated, “We’re excited to see the amazing things our users will build, learn, and achieve with these tools.”
OpenAI’s competitors, including Perplexity and Google, are keenly focusing on tapping into India’s vast user base. The company has recently launched services to Indonesia and 16 other Asian countries. This decision is indicative of its smart strategy to capture the growing demand for AI technology.
The timing of the announcement is notable, coming just days before OpenAI’s own DevDay Exchange event in India on November 4. How long this promotional offer will last is unknown. One thing is clear — OpenAI has its eyes set on furthering its pursuit to become the go-to tool for Indian users.
