LibreChat at chat.brannan.cloud

This is an implementation of LibreChat, a ChatGPT clone with extra features for general use for my family.

LibreChat brings together the future of assistant AIs with the revolutionary technology of OpenAI's ChatGPT. Celebrating the original styling, LibreChat gives you the ability to integrate multiple AI models. It also integrates and enhances original client features such as conversation and message search, prompt templates and plugins.

With LibreChat, you no longer need to opt for ChatGPT Plus and can instead use free or pay-per-call APIs. We welcome contributions, cloning, and forking to enhance the capabilities of this advanced chatbot platform.

With a self-hosted LibreChat VM, my family and I no longer need to purchase expensive, rate-limited ChatGPT Pro.
