Subscription price comparison

AI subscription price report #1 (October 2026): AISub recorded no changes, so how should you read third-party "October increases"?

The short answer: as of October 30, 2026, AISub's price changes page shows "No price changes recorded since September 29, 2026." The recently discussed App Store increases in Türkiye, Egypt, and Nigeria and ChatGPT Go cuts in Sweden and Malaysia come from a third-party tracker's before-and-after records, which are months apart, so they cannot be confirmed as October changes. Below are the prices AISub currently records, as the baseline for this first monthly report.

What to know first

AISub recorded no local-price changes this month. ChatGPT Plus currently costs ₺999.99, E£999.99, and ₦31,500 on the App Store in Türkiye, Egypt, and Nigeria; ChatGPT Go costs 85 SEK and 23.99 MYR on the App Store in Sweden and Malaysia. AISub has collected ChatGPT App Store prices continuously since September 29 without recording a change, so any price change must have happened before then.

Which price changes did AISub record in October 2026?

None. AISub's price changes page lists local-price changes for ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and Grok by region and month. As of October 30, 2026, it shows "No price changes recorded since September 29, 2026."

Two caveats: the detected time is when AISub first collected a new price, and the provider may have changed it earlier; and AISub's per-region Claude App Store records begin on October 29, 2026, so AISub's data cannot date any earlier Claude change.

Why can't the third-party tracker's increases be counted as October changes?

The changes page of the third-party tracker Plan Price lists several App Store price differences, but each is the difference between its previous record and its latest one. The two records are months apart, so they show that the price changed at some point in that window, not that it changed in October. The table excerpts some entries with the two record dates the site shows.

How should you check a report that an AI subscription got more expensive somewhere?

The following is AISub's guidance.

  • Check the dates of both records: the longer the gap, the less you can pin the change to a day or month.
  • Separate channels: App Store, Google Play, and web prices are independent, and a change in one does not mean the others changed.
  • Separate tax bases: web prices may show amounts including or excluding tax, while the tax basis of App Store prices usually cannot be confirmed.
  • Compare local prices only: a change in the USD amount may just be exchange-rate movement.
  • Trust the checkout: price pages show collected data, and the signed-in checkout page shows what you are actually charged.

What will the next monthly report cover?

AISub plans to publish one price report per month, using its own price change records as the primary source. The next issue will use the prices listed here as its baseline. If AISub records a local-price change, the report will list the detected time and the before and after prices, and note that the actual change may predate detection.

Why might AISub detect a price change later than it happened?

If the USD-converted price changes, is that a price change?

No. AISub's change records count only local-price changes. USD amounts move with exchange rates even when the local price stays the same.
