GPT-6 Astra plans and real prices

Real price = monthly fee ÷ tokens you can actually use in a month. “vs API” shows how many times cheaper than the official API list price (standard workload mix) the plan is. “Evidence” opens the full calculation and sources for that row.

Adoption evidence · source and rationale (translated from the Chinese record)

Weighted across 8 measured sources: Observatory 8.53, round10 screenshot 13.8, round13 same-frame 7.52, round14 maintainer panel 10.0, msg7086 8.07, round14 figure 4 (2/3 of a week) 8.18, figure 2 self-reported 9.25, figure 3 background 1.03B/week — the earlier figures share that scale; chatgpt-astra-round12/13/14

Added 3.812B: weekly pool 953M ×4 weeks — measured sources weighted by verification tier (same-frame panel / maintainer panel / continuous series ×3, self-reported share ×2, community verbal ×1); round10's 10% figure and tier, confirmed, changed from not-adopted to weighted-in; round14 new basis: weekly pool ≈$1200~1500 list-worth (Astra), same pool Sol $2200~2500, internal weighting penalizes Astra ~1.9×; the maintainer's own test ≈3.2B/month and lichengzhe's gateway 2.1B~2.3B are kept out of the weights per the ruling — pure verbal and lower-bound-only sources do not enter the mean; implied weight ≈3.38×Sol; same-kind real measurements still spread over 680M~1.56B/week — pools may genuinely differ across accounts, so this value is a weighted center, not a universal constant; not workload-normalized: eight-source weighting, most sources lack a token breakdown

Maintainer's Plus panel: 10,336,745 tokens (input+cache_read) = 26pp remaining of the weekly window; chatgpt-astra-adoption-round7-2026-09-11.json

Added 159M: 10,336,745÷26%×4 weeks; this extract excludes output (under Luna's method output is 0.33%, impact <1%); 26pp is a rounded-reading difference, range about 153M~165M; the Plus pricing page marks Astra as a limited tier (credits can be added) — what was directly measured is the actual consumption rate, which is unaffected; round8 found Observatory now measures Astra≈4.1×Sol, so round7's old 2× weight corroboration is doubtful and this value does not rely on the weight model; round13 added Plus same-frame samples of 32~75M/week spread over 128M~300M/month, same magnitude as 159M — value unchanged; Pro 20x already anchored per round13; not workload-normalized: the extract contains only input+cache_read, lacking the output component
