NanoGPT help

NanoGPT uses account funds for model usage. Add funds from Balance with credit card or supported crypto, then use chat, media generation, API, or other tools.

You can start with an anonymous local session. Creating an account is optional, but it makes balances easier to keep across devices.

Open a new chat, choose a text model or Auto Model, and type your message in the input box. Conversations are separate by default, although Context Memory and Global Memory can carry selected context forward when enabled.

No. NanoGPT can be used with an anonymous local session. Accounts are useful when you want a balance that is easier to keep across devices.

Conversations are stored locally in your browser unless you explicitly export or share them.

NanoGPT can be installed as a Progressive Web App. The NanoGPT Browser Assistant is available for Chrome and Firefox, letting you attach pages, elements, images, or marked areas and then summarize, explain, translate, or chat with that context while you browse.

A model is the AI system that answers, reasons, writes code, analyzes images, or generates media. NanoGPT lets you choose between many text, image, video, and audio models.

Different models have different strengths, speeds, context sizes, prices, and media capabilities.

Some models are strongest at reasoning, some at coding, some at long context, some at vision, and some at low-cost high-volume work. Price usually reflects capability, provider cost, and performance.

Model pages show capabilities and pricing. Leaderboards help compare model quality across text, image, and video tasks.

Auto Model lets NanoGPT select a suitable Basic, Standard, or Premium model tier for the task. It is useful when you care more about the result than manually choosing a specific model.

Yes, NanoGPT supports prompt caching on most models. It can speed up repeated long-context requests and reduce costs when the selected model supports caching.

Vision means a text model can accept images or screenshots alongside text. Vision models can describe images, read text, analyze screenshots, and reason about visual content.

NanoGPT connects supported models to external AI model providers. Availability and routing depend on the selected model and may change over time.

Check the model page or provider-selection controls for the options available for that model.

Use the Media page in image mode. Enter a prompt, choose an image model, adjust settings such as aspect ratio or resolution when available, and start generation.

The help assistant can also recommend an image model for a specific prompt and link you directly to the right Media page setup.

Yes. Some image models support image-to-image or editing workflows. Choose a compatible model from the image generation flow and upload the source image where the UI offers image input.

As between you and NanoGPT, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, NanoGPT assigns its rights in generated output to you. Generated images may be used commercially, subject to applicable law and any restrictions in the selected model provider's terms.

You are responsible for checking third-party rights and provider-specific restrictions. Generated output is not guaranteed to be copyrightable, exclusive, or free of third-party rights.

Use the Media page in video mode. Choose a video model, enter the prompt, and adjust model-specific settings such as duration, aspect ratio, resolution, or image input when supported.

Some video models support image-to-video workflows for animating an existing image.

Image and video settings depend on the selected model. The Media page shows available settings such as aspect ratio, resolution, duration, rendering speed, and model-specific options.

NanoGPT has Context Memory and Global Memory features for carrying useful context forward. Memory can be controlled through conversation and system prompt settings.

Use the memory documentation for the exact setup and behavior.

Conversations are stored locally on your device and can be accessed from the Conversations page. A conversation can be continued later from the same browser/device.

Conversations can be exported from the Conversations page. If you use NanoGPT without an account, your local session identifier is what ties the browser session to your balance.

Creating an account is the easiest way to keep balances across devices.

NanoGPT is designed so you can use the site without creating an account. Conversations are stored locally by default.

When you send a message to a model, the prompt and relevant conversation context are sent to the selected model provider so the model can answer. Provider-specific privacy and retention policies may apply.

Web search is separate from model inference. The selected search provider handles the search query. You can change web search settings when the feature is available for your workflow.

TEE model protections apply to model execution and do not automatically extend to web-search provider requests.

Open Balance and choose a payment method. NanoGPT supports credit card payments and supported crypto deposits.

Crypto deposits are credited based on the current USD exchange rate. Nano deposits are converted to USD at the live rate, and new Nano deposits are no longer held as a Nano balance.

NanoGPT is pay-as-you-go by default. Text models are generally priced by input and output tokens. Media models are priced by model-specific generation settings such as resolution, duration, or rendering mode.

Pricing pages and model detail pages show the relevant costs.

Yes. Enable "Use balance after limits" on the Subscription page. After your included daily or weekly limit is used up, requests for subscription models continue automatically and are charged to your balance at normal pay-as-you-go rates.

For API requests, your API key must also allow balance spending: its billing mode must not be "Subscription only" and it must not have a $0 spend limit. Otherwise requests return a 429 error such as "Weekly included input token limit exceeded" until your limit resets.

NanoGPT offers several discount paths, including Nano payment discounts, subscription discounts, and high-spend text-model discounts when eligible.

Some discounts may not stack. Check Pricing and Settings for current eligibility.

Yes. If your organization needs a written offer, quote, or pro-forma document for funding approval, grants, procurement, or internal purchasing, contact support with the billing entity, required reference numbers, requested credit amount, currency, and any deadline.

These documents are usually prepared for prepaid NanoGPT credits. Credits on NanoGPT are denominated in USD, so an offer can state the funding amount in another currency and clarify that the credited balance is converted at the exchange rate used at the time of payment or deposit.

Final VAT or tax details are stated on the invoice where applicable.

Yes. NanoGPT has a testimonials page with user reviews and links to original sources where available.

Yes. NanoGPT provides OpenAI-compatible API endpoints. Create an API key from the API page and use it with the documented base URL and model IDs.

Most normal website and API usage will not hit rate limits. Very high-volume usage may be limited to keep the service stable.

If you expect thousands of requests per minute or very high token volume, contact support so the team can plan capacity and pricing with you.

BYOK support is available for selected workflows. Use the BYOK page or contact support if you want a provider/key setup that is not exposed in your account yet.

Use the Support page to create a private ticket tied to your current session. The help assistant can also prefill a ticket draft, but it will only create the ticket after you confirm.

Use the newsletter signup on the Help page to get occasional NanoGPT updates, including major product changes and new model additions.

Newsletter emails are separate from account emails and include an unsubscribe link.

NanoGPT works with many model providers. If you offer models NanoGPT should add, or can offer better pricing or reliability, contact the team through support.

NanoGPT exists to make many AI models available through one pay-as-you-go interface. The goal is to reduce friction for people who want access to strong models without managing many subscriptions or provider accounts.

NanoGPT also supports privacy-conscious and crypto-friendly payment paths for users who cannot or do not want to use traditional subscription flows.

Nano is a cryptocurrency focused on fast, feeless payments. NanoGPT supports Nano payments because they settle quickly and make small pay-as-you-go balances practical.
