OpenAI gives ChatGPT subscribers API credits matching their plan

The point

OpenAI launched an API credits benefit for eligible ChatGPT subscriptions. If you have a $100, $200, or $500 subscription plan, you now get that same quantity of credits to apply to one of your API organizations.

Why it matters

For builders, subscription spend now also covers API experiments and demos.
