Looking for a self hosting solution or some free alternatives for either chatgpt 4 or ideally sudowrite.

The latter does most of what I want it to do, but the free trial is super limiting and the paid tier is asking too much for not much of a word bump.

The former is only available with a sub but it requires way too much fiddling considering I’d be paying 20$ a month to do what I want but is an option. Sadly, I need gpt4 if I go that route and can’t cruise on 3.5 for free.

I’m writing a novel and while I don’t care about AI doing the actual writing for me, I do want something to help me organize my ideas or even brainstorm. gpt 3.5 just doesn’t have the token bandwidth to do that. Sudowrite does an excellent job with it, but the pricing is stupid at 10$ for 30k words. I went through the 4k free trial just trying to figure out how it works.

I know there’s a slew of self hosting chatbots but I haven’t seen anyone use them for writing and searching huggingface is a pita.

Google bard could be an option but haven’t found a way to jailbreak it and Claude is not available in my country.

Any ideas?

    Many of those are blocked in many countries.
