Hey there, I’m looking to purchase a subscription, but I’m unsure which package would best fit my requirements. I’m currently working on a Laravel App where customers visit the website and fill out a brief form, which includes a recording button. The customer records the brief and converts it to text using the Whisper API. After that, the converted response generates questions. However, the API quota has been exceeded, and I need to upgrade my subscription. I’m not sure how many brief recordings customers will make. The APIs I’m using are:
/v1/audio/transcriptions and /v1/chat/completions.
Could you please guide me on how to purchase and where to buy, and also advise on which package would be most suitable for this scenario?

That sounds like an interesting use!
It seems like you need the missing “quickstart guide” - how to pay for services.
Using the API isn’t connected to a recurring subscription, nor is it part of ChatGPT.
You pay for the actual data usage sent to and received from AI models. Pre-purchase of credits into an account is required, though.
The first place to go for higher understanding and to see if what you propose has room for profit is to visit the OpenAI pricing page, where pricing is shown in the consumption unit tokens (although the amount prepaid or billed is not the million token amounts that are multiplied just for easier understanding)

“quota exceeded, check your plan…” error is because your account is unfunded.
