>Llama Workspace connects to AI providers like OpenAI and Anthropic via API. In the API, each word for the most commonly used model (GPT-4o at the time of writing) costs approximately $0.000025. Therefore, to break even with the ChatGPT Teams license, which costs $30/seat/month, you would need to generate 1,200,000 words.

I would debate this one. As a "normal" user of chatgpt with around 10-20 questions a day, I can exceed this $30 per month because

1) it's not a word per se but token. A lot of the words are tokenized.

2) for each chat, for each question all the context above is re-sent and counts for cost.

I think pivoting towards self hosting llama models and charging for them might be more profitable to you and to the users.

Thank you and congratulations!

How (in your opinion) does this project compare to https://www.librechat.ai?

(My company selected LibreChat to host our internal “GPT Teams” implementation after surveying and evaluating the current state of tools as of about six months ago, but I’m sure it’s a rapidly evolving space.)

Very cool!

What is the recommended resource usage for self-hosted? I don’t see it in that section on your site.
