How to try GPT-6.1 Terra in Whizi

Whizi puts GPT-6.1 Terra in the same model picker as ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, so there is no separate OpenAI account or API key to set up. Pick a plan on the pricing page, open a new chat, choose GPT-6.1 Terra in the model picker and send your first message.

Each message costs 5 credits, whatever its length. If a question turns out to suit another model better, switch in the same conversation and the thread carries across. See switching models mid-conversation.

What it costs inside Whizi
