Q: Would you consider adding more API integrations
I’d like to use your service in many way and different language, but many features currently rely on other subscription-based tools—such as Chatwood—and Chatnode’s lifetime deal on AppSumo has already disappeared.
just want to comfirm, if using Chatnode api, am i still counting credit by using openrounter.ai?
Would you consider adding more API integrations with AppSumo products that still offer lifetime plans, for example this one: it seems will save my time on create SMTP config, may be.

Could you please clarify two things?
Is API integration included in the plan I'm considering?

As an alternative, would it be possible to use a tool like Release0 to collect customer reviews?"

Jul 28, 2025A: Hi! Great set of questions, let’s unpack them:
API Integrations & Lifetime-Friendly Tools
Yes, we’re continuously adding new API integrations, especially ones that reduce dependency on additional subscriptions. We’re very aware that tools like Chatwood or third-party SMTP services can add up. That’s why we designed our Email block to work with any SMTP or transactional provider, including Resend, Mailersend, and others:
📨 Email Block Guide:

It’s a simple setup, and if Waitlister provides an SMTP-compatible API, you could very likely use it the same way. I just reviewed the Waitlister AppSumo listing — it looks promising, and we’d be happy to look into an integration. You can request it directly on our feature request page, where you can also vote on others:

LLM API Usage & Credit Costs
With Release0, we follow a BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) model. That means:
• You connect your own OpenRouter, OpenAI, Groq, etc. key
• We do not charge extra or take a cut of your API usage
• All usage is under your control and your billing
So yes, if you’re using OpenRouter via your key (through ChatNode or otherwise), then usage is tracked on your OpenRouter account, not by us.
Is API Access Included in the Plan?
Yes. API access and webhook integrations are included, even on the AppSumo plans. You can:
• Pull/push data in/out of Release0
• Use our platform as a backend or logic layer
• Automate workflows with Zapier, Make, Sheets, etc.
Check out the API and HTTP-Request documentation for a closer look.

Can Release0 Be Used to Collect Reviews?
Absolutely, that’s actually one of Release0’s core strengths.
You can use our Rating block to collect customer feedback, reviews, or NPS-style scores. It supports:
• Custom labels
• Conditional follow-ups
• Auto-tagging or exports
