## What it is
An open-source proxy API that lets users access OpenAI's ChatGPT API for free, with rate limiting and self-hosting support. The repository was archived in March 2023 after the free service became financially unsustainable.

## Use cases
- access chatgpt api for free
- proxy openai api requests without paying
- self-host a free chatgpt endpoint
- build a chatbot without an openai api key
- add chatgpt to an app at zero cost

## When to choose
- you need a historical reference for proxying OpenAI's API
- you want to study how free ChatGPT proxy services were built

## When to avoid
- you need a working free ChatGPT API today - the service is archived and defunct
- you need maintained, reliable LLM API access
- you need production-grade OpenAI integration

## Facets
- artifact type: service
- maturity: abandoned
- function: proxy, api-framework, chatbot, llm-inference, rate-limiting
- domain: artificial-intelligence, large-language-models, chatbots, apis, self-hosted
- platform: self-hosted, cloud
- tags: chatgpt, openai-proxy, free-api, archived, reverse-proxy, nodejs, web-server
