So for 25$ a month I get access to ChatGPT and Claude offerings in addition to access to Kagi search. This sounds like a good deal, compared to the 20$/month access to ChatGPT only. Or am I missing something?
You can use something like OpenRouter, which lets you access essentially all commercially available models. Including open-source models. There are no rate limits.
You pay a different rate per model (OpenRouter shows the pricing transparently). You load your account with credits. I use it daily (undoubtedly far more than the average user) and loaded 50$ with credits five months ago, but I still have over 1/2 of it left.
I think it is hard to believe that Kagi would be any cheaper and have no rate limits.
Keep in mind that, while OpenRouter gives you the upstream price for OpenAI/Anthropic models (so you pay the same per token), there's a loading charge, so if you want to load $10 in credits you pay $12 or so.
This means that it's more expensive than calling OpenAI directly, even though they have the same price per token.

Just plug your API keys into a front end like https://github.com/enricoros/big-AGI and pay as you go for all commercially available models

There's also BigAgi (really a weird ass name - probably hurting them) that is good for the same use case. Just paste in your API key and you get a really nice UI to chat through at-cost.

Chatblade cli is also worth checking out. No loading fees and you can pipe code results to files.
Thanks for the hint, a usage based model looks way more attractive to me right now.

OpenRouter absolutely does have rate limits:

...haven't had issues with them, but they are there

Is there some reason Brave Search isn't more popular on this site? It already has an incredibly helpful assistant built into the search and it's free. I don't even use Brave Browser (long live Firefox!) but I feel like people are sleeping on theur search.
Brave is generally disliked here because of the affiliation with cryptocurrency.
