ChatGPT API

Automated browser interaction with ChatGPT to get AI-generated responses

Overview

The ChatGPT API endpoint automates interactions with ChatGPT's web interface, allowing you to submit prompts and receive AI-generated responses programmatically. This uses browser automation with human behavior simulation to interact naturally with ChatGPT.

WARNING — Browser Automation

This endpoint uses automated browser interactions with ChatGPT's web interface, not direct API calls. Response times are typically 10-30 seconds depending on prompt complexity.

Best Practices

Prompt Engineering

Be Specific:

• ❌ "Tell me about dogs"
• ✅ "List 5 interesting facts about Golden Retrievers"

Provide Context:

• ❌ "Write code"
• ✅ "Write a Python function that validates email addresses using regex"

Set Format Expectations:

• ✅ "Explain in bullet points"
• ✅ "Write in a professional tone"
• ✅ "Keep response under 200 words"

Timeout Management

• Simple questions: Default 60 seconds is sufficient
• Complex analysis: Increase to 90-120 seconds
• Long-form content: May need up to 180 seconds

// Adjust timeout based on task complexity
const timeout = promptLength > 500 ? 120000 : 60000;

Error Handling

Always implement retry logic for transient errors:

async function askChatGPT(prompt, maxRetries = 3) {
  for (let i = 0; i < maxRetries; i++) {
    try {
      const response = await fetch(
        `https://api.ujeebu.com/chatgpt?prompt=${encodeURIComponent(prompt)}`,
        { headers: { 'ApiKey': 'YOUR_API_KEY' } }
      );

      if (response.ok) {
        return await response.json();
      }
    } catch (error) {
      if (i === maxRetries - 1) throw error;
      await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 2000 * (i + 1)));
    }
  }
}

Error Handling

Common Errors

Input Not Found:

{
  "error": "Could not find ChatGPT input - retrying..."
}

Solution: Automatic retry. If persists, check if ChatGPT interface has changed.

Response Timeout:

{
  "error": "Timeout waiting for ChatGPT response - retrying..."
}

Solution: Increase timeout parameter or simplify prompt.

No Response Detected:

{
  "error": "No response detected from ChatGPT - retrying..."
}

Solution: Automatic retry. May indicate temporary ChatGPT unavailability.

Missing Prompt:

{
  "error": "Please provide 'prompt' parameter"
}

Solution: Ensure prompt parameter is included in request.

Retry Strategy

The endpoint automatically retries on transient errors:

Credits & Billing

Credit Costs

INFO — Credit Cost

The ChatGPT endpoint currently has no credit cost configured in the backend. This may change in the future.

Billing Notes

• Credits are not currently charged for ChatGPT requests
• Automatic retries don't consume additional credits
• Response length doesn't affect credit cost

Cost Optimization

Batch Similar Queries:

// Instead of multiple simple requests
const prompts = [
  "What is AI?",
  "What is ML?",
  "What is NLP?"
];

// Combine into one request
const combinedPrompt = "Briefly explain: 1) AI, 2) ML, 3) NLP";

Cache Common Responses:

const cache = new Map();

async function getChatGPTResponse(prompt) {
  if (cache.has(prompt)) {
    return cache.get(prompt);
  }

  const response = await fetchChatGPT(prompt);
  cache.set(prompt, response);
  return response;
}

Technical Details

Authentication

Authentication is managed automatically using browser profiles with valid ChatGPT sessions. No additional API keys or ChatGPT Plus subscription required from your end.

Human Behavior Simulation

The endpoint includes:

• Natural mouse movements
• Random delays between actions
• Human-like typing patterns
• Page scrolling and interaction

This ensures reliable operation and reduces detection risk.

Response Times

Typical response times:

• Page load: 3-5 seconds
• Prompt submission: 1-2 seconds
• Response generation: 5-20 seconds
• Total: 10-30 seconds

Longer prompts or complex requests may take up to 60 seconds.
