Thanks for creating this, but ChatGPT is free and this replacement is not, right? (one needs to pay for API credit from OpenAI)

It's true – you need to pay for OpenAI API. With my typical usage frequency of ChatGPT it's going to cost me about 3$/month.

You're right that the usage is not free. The readme also lists this feature: > Track $ balance spent on OpenAI API
