Hi @lean wave. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
No, GPT-4o is not available for free in the OpenAI API. To access GPT-4o and GPT-4o mini via the API, you need to have an OpenAI API account and make a successful payment of $5 or more. After this payment, you'll be able to access the GPT-4 models via the OpenAI API. The API usage is a separate cost from a ChatGPT subscription. You can find more details about the pricing on the API pricing page (https://openai.com/pricing).
However, GPT-4o is available in the free tier of ChatGPT with certain usage limits. Free tier users can use GPT-4o only a limited number of times within a three-hour window. Once the limit is reached, users are invited to continue their conversation using GPT-4o mini or to upgrade to ChatGPT Plus.
