A working OpenAI API key is required to set up your LongShot account, and users pay directly to OpenAI for token usage for factual content generation.
After connecting, users get access to all features and integrations that LongShot offers. Basically, users bring their own content generation credits (tokens), and LongShot offers features for generating long-form and short-form content.
Note: If you create a new OpenAI account, you might not have access to GPT-4. This would limit your access to some LongShot features. In such a case, you might need to upgrade your OpenAI account and wait before OpenAI provides access.

LongShot also uses similar models but may provide different answers for the same prompt. This is because LongShot customizes its model to generate output for different use cases that might be more relevant to the users. You get automatic templates that generate output for different use cases.
You don’t need to write prompts for generating content whenever you wish to generate content. Use readymade templates to generate content.
LongShot might take a few more seconds for generation, but it still has a fast response time for long-form content. But that doesn’t matter as much as the quality of the LongShot-generated content output is second to none.
No. ChatGPT Plus is a subscription plan for ChatGPT users and has nothing to do with you using LongShot.
You need to generate an OpenAI API Key and connect the same to LongShot. When you generate content on LongShot, you'll consume certain credits (tokens) for using different LongShot features/templates.
Each template uses certain Open AI models like GPT-4, GPT-3.5, etc. And based on this usage (of credits), you'll be charged by OpenAI.
