FAQ
Which AI are you using?
We’re using OpenAI’s gpt-4o-mini model, but as LLMs advance, we’ll be changing which model we use.
Will AI train on my books?
OpenAI’s help documents state that when using the API (which we are doing) your work is not used to train the model.

Does this mean that Plottr is using AI now?
Yes and no. Plottr software currently does not use AI in any way in-app, and this service is completely disconnected from the Plottr software. But this service is AI-assisted and outputs organized, visual Plottr outlines.
Are there any limitations on what kinds of books I can upload?
Some NSFW content might not work due to content restrictions in OpenAI’s policies.
Do upload credits ever expire? What if I don't use them in a year?
Upload credits never expire!
