On the evening of Aug 10 the Qianwen app rolled out paid plans for its Office Assistant aimed at professional users. Three tiers are offered: Flagship (128 yuan/month or 1,499 yuan/year, auto-renew) with a 20x usage quota; Elite (49 yuan/month or 568 yuan/year) with a 5x quota; Advanced (19 yuan/month or 200 yuan/year) with a 2x quota. Qianwen says core features remain free and routine use will not be affected.

OpenAI said its new Premium Seat offers a usage allowance five times that of the standard tier, removes the 5-hour usage cap and introduces a predictable weekly usage-quota reset.
