What is Botrush?
Botrush is a user-friendly interface designed to enhance interactions with ChatGPT and other AI systems using your own OpenAI API keys. It provides a superior experience compared to the standard ChatGPT interface by offering advanced features like a categorized prompt library, chat history search, conversation organization with folders, and audio input/output capabilities for hands-free conversations. The platform works on both mobile and desktop devices, including PWA support for Android and iOS, plus a dedicated desktop app for all operating systems.
Key features include a prompt library with ready-to-use categorized prompts and the ability to save personalized prompts, efficient chat history search to find specific information in past conversations, chat folders for better organization, download and share capabilities for conversations in various formats with shareable links, speech recognition for input and text-to-speech for output, and a message navigator for faster navigation through long threads. The interface also includes customizable themes, fonts, backgrounds, and readability controls.
Botrush is designed for anyone who spends significant time using ChatGPT and wants better organization, privacy, and functionality. It targets content creators, researchers, students, professionals, and anyone who needs to manage multiple conversations, reuse prompts, or interact with AI via voice. The platform emphasizes privacy and security, ensuring user data remains safe.
The tool operates on a BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) model with a pay-as-you-go pricing structure. Users pay OpenAI directly for token usage rather than a fixed monthly subscription, with no limit on messages. Premium features are unlocked through a one-time lifetime license purchase rather than recurring subscriptions, offering cost-effective long-term use.

Frequently asked questions about Botrush
How is Botrush different from ChatGPT?
Although Botrush and ChatGPT share the same underlying technology, Botrush provides a user-friendly interface with greater privacy (data sent through the API is not used by OpenAI for training their models), more features, and the ability to pay only for what you use instead of a fixed-cost subscription, with no limit on messages you can send.
What is an OpenAI API key and do I need one?
An API key is a unique identifier used to authenticate a user, like a special passcode. For OpenAI's API, this key allows you to access OpenAI's features safely in Botrush. Yes, you need an OpenAI API key to use Botrush. You pay OpenAI directly for the amount of tokens you use. You can get an API key from the OpenAI website.
How does the Botrush license work?
By purchasing a license, you get lifetime access to Botrush Premium. All future updates to the app are included. What is NOT included are API call costs, which you pay directly to OpenAI since you own the API key.
Do I need to pay for the OpenAI API key?
Yes. You need to have some credits to use your OpenAI API key within the app. Your credit balance will be consumed as you use the API. If you don't have an OpenAI API key yet, you can get it from the OpenAI website.
How is the cost calculated for API usage?
OpenAI offers multiple model types at different price points. Each model has different capabilities and requests are priced differently. You can find details on token pricing on the OpenAI pricing page. All costs are estimated - refer to your OpenAI dashboard to check the usage of your API key.
Can I use Botrush with my ChatGPT Plus subscription?
No. Currently, Botrush requires you to have your own OpenAI API key. The ChatGPT Plus subscription is separate and managed by OpenAI - it does not provide an API key that you can use with Botrush.

Are mobile and desktop apps available?

Is my data safe with Botrush?
Absolutely. No user input or prompts are stored or sent to Botrush. Your OpenAI API key is safe because it is stored only locally on your device. The data submitted via API will not be used to train or improve OpenAI's models.
