I completely agree! Its so frustrating that providers (google, openai, anthropic) silo their $20/month consumer subscriptions away from their API access. It would be amazing if paying that flat fee gave you a 'personal API key' to use in open source UIs like this.

Unfortunately, we're stuck with standard API keys for now. Though I believe that google aistudio has decent free limits on gemini 3 flash with the free api keys? If you're just doing personal coding, you can easily plug a free api key into OpenGravity and basically use it as much as you want without paying a dime!

(I think its like 250 requests per day maybe?)

This isn’t some temporary problem. Flat rate subscriptions include a hidden term that you dont pay out of pocket. Its the LTV of their speculation on the product surface and the belief they will retain you due to laziness and muscle memory
