So far an API has been less of a priority than focusing on the user-facing product. But it seems there's a reasonable amount of demand for it, which we'll consider.
Would be great to have access to your model in a LLM gateway like https://openrouter.ai/
I would give your API a try as minimum.
ChatGPT amazed people but its UI didn’t. A bunch of better UI’s showed up building on the OpenAI API and ChatGPT own. They helped people accomplish more which further marketed the product.
You can get this benefit with few downsides if you make the API simple with few promises about feature. “This is provided AS IS for your convenience and experimentation.”
