Chat Is Now Lounge

Our consumer chat app has a name: Lounge by LLM Gateway — the members' lounge for AI. Same app, same prices, same chat.llmgateway.io, with a full visual identity: membership pricing, boarding-pass plan cards, and a proper wordmark.

Our chat app never really had a name — it was "the playground" in some places, "LLM Gateway Chat" in others, and just "Chat" in the navbar. Today it gets one: Lounge, the members' lounge for AI. Every frontier model, waiting in one place.

Nothing about how the app works changes. Same app, same URL (chat.llmgateway.io), same prices, same models, and your chats, projects, and history are exactly where you left them. What changes is that the product finally looks and sounds like what it is: one membership instead of a stack of AI subscriptions.

Memberships, not plans

Chat Plans are now Lounge memberships — same three tiers, same prices, same credit multipliers:

Membership Price Usage value Models
Starter $9/mo ~2× what you pay The fast models
Plus $19/mo ~2.5× what you pay Every model, frontier flagships included
Pro $49/mo ~3× what you pay Every model, with the most monthly headroom

The pricing page now hands you a boarding pass instead of a pricing card: each tier is a Member Pass with a perforated stub, a tier code, and a barcode. The information is the same — what you pay, what you actually get at provider rates, and how many messages that buys.

Existing subscribers don't need to do anything. Your tier, billing cycle, and remaining credits carry over untouched — only the words on the receipts changed.

Pay-as-you-go gets a bar receipt

Topping up credits now itemizes your total on a Lounge bar receipt — the same amounts and the same 5% platform fee, printed the way a receipt should be.

Everywhere the name appears

The rename runs through the whole product, not just the landing page:

  • In the app — a proper Lounge wordmark in every sidebar, the login and signup pages, shared-chat pages, and the PWA install name.
  • On invoices and emails — Stripe line items and billing history now read "Lounge PLUS membership renewed" instead of "Chat Plan PLUS renewed".
  • Across the site and docs — the dashboard, the comparison pages, and the docs all say Lounge now.

DevPass is your all-access pass for coding tools; Lounge is your seat for everything else. One account, one balance, both products.
