ChatGPT2API lets you turn ChatGPT's official website into your own private image generation and editing service. Instead of paying for OpenAI's API, you use your existing ChatGPT account to generate images, edit uploaded photos, and even create editable PowerPoint or Photoshop files, all through a standard API that works with popular AI tools like Cherry Studio and New API. Under the hood, the project works by reverse-engineering the behind-the-scenes communication between your browser and ChatGPT's website. You run it on your own computer or server, and it exposes the same API format that OpenAI uses, so other software can connect to it without knowing the difference. It comes with a web interface where you can generate and edit images directly in your browser, and it automatically manages multiple ChatGPT accounts, rotating between them, removing ones that stop working, and refreshing those that hit rate limits. You can import accounts from several sources, including local files, remote servers, or direct access tokens. This is useful for someone who already has a ChatGPT Plus or Pro subscription and wants to use its image generation capabilities programmatically, for example, to batch-generate marketing visuals, edit product photos through an automated workflow, or plug image generation into an existing app that expects OpenAI's API format. A small team could pool several ChatGPT accounts together and route requests through a single endpoint, with the tool handling failover and account health automatically. The project offers several storage options for account and configuration data, ranging from simple local files to an external database. It also includes built-in proxy support to help avoid connection issues with Chatflare's anti-bot protections. The README is clear that this is for personal learning and non-commercial use only, and warns that accounts used with it risk being limited or banned by OpenAI.
