Sorry but I am not going to pay for this before trying it out on my content.

Surely there can be a test function within the website which allows me to see what a user would experience?

You can do it yourself with this repo and only pay the OpenAI API fees: https://github.com/mpaepper/content-chatbot

Your content-chatbot repo was very useful when I was figuring out how to achieve this sort of thing with langchain. I was able to knock together a chatbot for a client's documentation site in an afternoon. But I guess the real value for SiteGPT is the ease-of-use and the client-side chat interface.

Same here. I know it hurts to offer a free trial for something that already costs you money to serve (those API calls won't be free), but it's really hard to sign up without trying it first.

Yes, I understand. I will give you the same option as the previous person. Please give me a sample webpage, just one web page and I will create a chatbot for that webpage, and post the chatbot link here.

Yeah, I didn't know how much that is going to cost me if I added a free trial. But I can create a demo for you if you like. Give me an example web page link for which you want the chatbot.

I will create one and post the link here. Just a single page url.

I don’t mean to be harsh, but if running a free trial would bankrupt you, you shouldn’t be trying to start a company.

It also doesn’t inspire much confidence in your early users, there’s been a lot of these GPT API cashgrabs popping up all over so if you want to differentiate yourself you might need to actually incur some risk.

What if instead of offering free trials to everybody, you estimate how many free trials you could afford, and limit it to that?

In exchange for the free trial the potential customer gives you permission to use it as a demo for others to try out and see how it performs.

Same boat. Not paying unless you can show me a demo of it working with my content. Do even know if their scrapper can properly scrape our site.
