Hi @fiery berry. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
No, the ChatGPT Plus subscription does not include API usage. The API usage and the ChatGPT Plus subscription are billed separately. The ChatGPT Plus subscription covers usage on chat.openai.com only and costs $20/month, while API usage has its own separate cost. You can find more details on the Pricing page (https://openai.com/pricing) of the API platform.
Furthermore, the rate limits for the ChatGPT Plus subscription and the API are also separate. For instance, as of January 5th 2024, GPT-4 has a rate limit of 40 messages every 3 hours for ChatGPT Plus subscribers, but this does not affect the API rate limits.

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
Yes, as a ChatGPT Plus subscriber, you have a rate limit of 40 messages every 3 hours as of the information available on January 5th, 2024. This limit is dynamically adjusted depending on demand and system performance. It's important to note that unused messages do not accumulate. For example, if you wait 6 hours, you will not have 80 messages available to use for the next 3 hours.
However, if you are a user under the ChatGPT Team plan, the message rate limit is set at approximately twice that of ChatGPT Plus, which is up to 100 messages every three hours.
