Q: it says unlimited Chat GPT access through my Open AI API key.
Does this mean that I will start getting charged for all my chat conversations even though i already pay for a chat gpt subscription. And that now i'll get charged for tokens use via the API for the same conversations I was getting thru my subscription?

May 14, 2024A: When you are on ChatGPT plus you have to pay a $20 subscription per month to use GPT-4 model and other features.
With ChatABC, you can do the same with just one time payment, and then use your OpenAI API key (that's per use), so you don't have to pay $20 each month. With ChatABC, you can access multiple different model and advance features built on top of it.
In short, A ChatGPT Plus subscription is not required for ChatABC. An OpenAI API key is sufficient.
but won't i get also charged for using up tokens when i use the API Key on each conversation? btw I saw your tool before it got announced on Appsumo and was already including it in a webinar on AI later this week. talk about a small world. I was curious about this question though with the cost of using my API Key.
Yes, you are correct. When utilizing the API Key for each conversation, you will be charged based on the number of tokens used. The token count includes both input and output tokens.
Regarding the cost of using the Chatgpt API Key, approximately 5 million words are covered in $20. This estimate can be used as a general guideline to understand the cost associated with token usage.
