Frequently asked questions

Why use AICT when ChatGPT is "free"?

For one-off questions, ChatGPT is great. For repeated tasks (blog posts, ads, READMEs, contracts), AICT saves 5-10 minutes per output via pre-tuned prompts and post-processing — that adds up to hours per week.

Does AICT use GPT-4 / GPT-5 under the hood?

AICT routes per-tool to Cerebras, Anthropic Claude, Cloudflare Workers AI, and Modal. Some tools route to OpenAI when it is the best fit. We pick the model that produces the highest-quality output for each specific task.

Is AICT just a wrapper around ChatGPT?

No. AICT is a tool catalog with hand-crafted prompts, post-processing, multi-step agents, brand voice memory, and quota management. The LLM is one component among many.

Can I still use ChatGPT alongside AICT?

Yes — many users keep ChatGPT for ad-hoc Q&A and use AICT for production work (blog posts, ads, READMEs). They complement each other.
