Frequently Asked Questions
Geeps is a third-party client application designed for users who wish to interact with OpenAI's GPT models in a flexible and cost-effective manner. It can be an alternative to a ChatGPT Plus subscription for users who anticipate varying levels of usage, enabling them to use the latest models without committing to a fixed subscription cost.
With Geeps you get a familiar chat app experience with pay-as-you-go billing. By connecting directly through an API key users get more control over usage and spending, making it a practical choice not just for developers but for regular users.
The answer is Yes and No 😄
While the Geeps app itself is available for free (for text chats), it requires a connection to OpenAI through a developer API key, which means direct billing and payment to OpenAI based on the AI usage (i.e. the amount of generated text or images).
This can be significantly (!) cheaper than a ChatGPT Plus subscription.
While there is no option to chat for free using Geeps, you may find some advantages with this approach.
- API users often gain access to the latest AI models sooner than free-tier ChatGPT users, allowing them to leverage cutting-edge advancements in AI functionality and performance. GPT-4 was available to API users months before it became available to free-tier ChatGPT users and the same applies to all new models.
- API users are usually not bound by the stringent rate limits imposed on free-tier users. This means they can enjoy a more seamless and uninterrupted experience, with the ability to handle higher volumes of queries.
- Access to models via API gets cheaper over time.
On the other hand Geeps doesn't have all the features that an official ChatGPT app has.
