Models

OpenAI's own features
Custom GPTs, OpenAI's native desktop and mobile apps, and the features OpenAI builds into them are only in OpenAI's apps. If your workflow depends on them, Plus is where they live.

Images, video and voice
Plus includes OpenAI's image generation. LazySusan includes GPT Image too, plus Nano Banana, FLUX, Ideogram and Recraft for images, Veo 3.1, Runway, Luma, Hailuo, Vidu and Higgsfield for video, and ElevenLabs for voices, music and sound effects. OpenAI shut down Sora 2 on 24 September 2026.

Usage
Plus has usage limits set by OpenAI. LazySusan uses a token balance across every model, with the cost shown before you send. A typical GPT-6.1 Sol reply is about 16 tokens, so Starter's 1,000 monthly tokens cover around 62 of them, or far more on GPT-6 Luna at about 1 token. Heavy daily users of one model may get more from Plus.
edge: Tie
