# Buckeye GPT
[](https://github.com/KemingHe/buckeye-gpt/blob/main/LICENSE)
[](https://buckeye.chat)
## Overview
As an Ohio State student, I built Buckeye GPT to solve a simple problem - advanced AI chatbots are expensive. This production-grade platform provides my fellow classmates free access to the latest language models, the same ones that typically cost $20/month. While NOT affiliated with Ohio State officials, this personal project represents my commitment to both technical excellence and AI equity.
## Why Use Buckeye GPT?
Built with the community in mind, the platform offers:
- 🆓 **Free Access**: The same advanced AI models you'd pay $20/month for elsewhere
- 🔒 **Privacy First**: Your data stays protected, with transparent security measures
- 🎓 **Student Focus**: Features built around real academic needs and workflows
- ⚡ **Reliability**: Production-quality infrastructure for consistent performance
## Development Quick Start
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Buckeye GPT is currently in pre-1.0 development. While the platform is stable for end users, the codebase is undergoing significant architectural changes. Public contributions will be welcomed after v1.0.0 release.

>
> - ✅ Production-ready for users at buckeye.chat
> - 🚧 Architecture refactoring in progress
> - ⏳ Public contribution guidelines coming in v1.0.0
