API Aggregation Service
While Chat is one of the best interfaces out there with higher upload limits than ChatGPT Plus, your subscription with me includes self-service access to an API aggregation service.
That means you can use the API Aggregation service with any application that supports OpenAI compatible APIs. All models from Chat are available in OpenAI compatible format for use in 3rd party applications.
If you have any issues using the https://chat.obsidianaitools.com/v1 API service please reach out to me at [email protected]. and mention the name of the Obsidian community plugin.
