Token moderation for free tier usage. #80

OpenAI API keys are for developers. While the app is in beta, a tiered structure for the apps usage should be developed.

Without a tiering option, API usage will become extremely expensive and the application will not have enough resources to continue for long.

I care about offering a free product that is ad free and can help people. A free tier usage of this application would limit a user to x amount of tokens per day (e.g. 10000 tokens, or some amount I can afford). Then there can be paid tiers that increases this usage by some factor.

Another interesting system that can be used is a donation tier system (similar to Sam Harris). Depending on the amount a user donates determines their tier. However, a user may request any tier for free. They will be required to make a request that they will be approved for manually by myself. A donation system keeps the app free and maintains good faith between the business and the customers.

Consider other types of donations that can keep this application free such as API key donations. This would look like a user reaching out to offer their API key to be used. This type of system would be more communal as opposed to transactional.
