		throwup238 on Dec 6, 2024 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: ChatGPT Pro I was using aider last night and ran up a $10 bill within two hours using o1 as the architect and Sonnet as the editor. It’s really easy to blow through $200 a month and o1-pro isn’t available in the API as far as I can tell.

Aider / Cline are known to eat tokens for lunch, because of the large context and system prompts they use.

The tool that I built doesn't have this problem, I haven't exceed $10/month on Claude 3.5 Sonnet. You can give it a try: https://prompt.16x.engineer/
