TypingMind is free to use with some basic features. You will need to have a working OpenAI API Key in order to use the app. When you use the API Key, you pay directly to OpenAI for the number of credits/tokens you use. TypingMind.com has premium features that can be unlocked with a one-time purchase. This is a static web app, it doesn't have any backend server. When you enter your API key, it will be stored locally and securely on your browser. All API requests are sent directly from your browser to OpenAI server to interact with ChatGPT. Think of this as an HTTP client for your ChatGPT API with a lot of convenience features. You can have as many chats as you want. The only limit is your OpenAI API key's limit and your browser storage limit (technical term: Local Storage). Web browser gives you some limited data storage, the actual limit is different for each browser. Typically, you can save thousands of chat conversations without problems, but that's not guaranteed.
