RuntimeWire, citing TestingCatalog, reported on September 24 that a Pro Max plan would add faster Work and Codex and possibly higher limits, with speculation about Cerebras hardware. OpenAI hasn't confirmed it and DevDay is September 29. (RuntimeWire) Codex PR #47971, merged September 25, recognizes a promax plan in auth, account responses and rate limits, relabeling tiers as Pro (prolite), Pro (More) (pro) and Pro (Max) (promax). PR #47932 removed gpt-5.4 from the bundled and Bedrock catalogs including GovCloud, prompting saved selections to migrate to GPT-6 Sol. The client code isn't confirmation of pricing, but it does confirm the tier exists as a concept inside OpenAI.
