Really nice and polished. I was hopeful (but not expectant), that it would use the chatgpt internal API's rather than using the public API as the flat-cost for ChatGPT of $20 can easily give significant cost savings when used heavily, but I am certain this approach is both against their ToS and actively blocked. Still, I really like it!

The irony of the Community chat being on Discord rather than Slack isn't lost on me, why did you pick Discord over Slack?

Everyone is on Discord (like Midjourney), it seems. But I think it would be better to actually only offer email and chat support directly. It's hard to build a community, I actually built this back in March and only shared this now.

Yeah, official ChatGPT Plus is hard to compete with. They are cheaper than electricity. But I still struggle at times with the UI. Maybe an approach where a chrome extension fixes a few quirks (like categories, prompt library) is a better option for the future.

They started adding captchas to prevent that, unfortunately.

Looks like training data is worth quite a bit for them.
