Launch plan
AI sign-in
Which AI subscriptions a customer can use inside Ad Shots, and what each provider allows.
The goal
Customers use the AI plan they already pay for, so the agent in Ad Shots costs you nothing. Each provider has its own rules about this, and they differ a lot.
Where each provider stands
| Option | Status | How it works |
|---|---|---|
| Claude subscription | Pending approval | Ad Shots runs the unmodified Claude Code program on the customer's machine. The customer signs in to it themselves |
| ChatGPT subscription | Pending approval | OpenAI's official "Sign in with ChatGPT" lets an app draw on the user's plan. Commercial apps apply through an interest form |
| Own API key | Settled | The customer enters a key in Settings. The app already works this way |
| Grok | On hold | Looks possible through xAI's Grok Build tool. Not confirmed |
| Antigravity (Google) | Dropped | Google treats this as a terms violation and disables accounts for it |
The Claude and ChatGPT rows come from Anthropic's and OpenAI's own pages. The Google row comes from forum posts and secondary reports.
Claude
Anthropic does not permit other apps to offer Claude login or to route requests through a customer's plan. It does permit a product to run the unmodified Claude Code program, with each customer signing in to it themselves and being billed by Anthropic directly.
That fits a desktop app. It carries three conditions:
- You agree to Anthropic's Commercial Terms of Service.
- Claude Code is not modified, and none of its sign-in methods are removed.
- You do not pay for, resell or sit in the middle of the customer's Claude usage.
Plan limits assume "ordinary, individual usage".
ChatGPT
OpenAI has an official feature for this. It separates two things: signing in for identity, and permission to use the person's plan. At launch, plan usage is open to open-source projects, personal projects that run locally, and selected private apps. Paid, commercial or remotely hosted apps join a waitlist.
A customer can see how much of their plan each connected app used and set a weekly cap for it. Connecting an app does not add to their limits.
You can build and test before approval with the public quickstart and development kit. Testing needs a ChatGPT Plus or Pro account.
Grok
xAI's legal pages refused automated requests, so the terms themselves have not been read. From xAI's own announcements and developer docs:
- xAI does let subscribers use their plan in other tools. It announced sign-in with a SuperGrok or X Premium+ subscription, with no API key, in OpenCode, Hermes Agent and Kilo Code.
- There is no public program for an app like Ad Shots. Every integration is one xAI announced itself, and all are open-source coding agents.
- Grok Build can be driven by another program. Its docs describe a headless mode and a mode for "IDE or tool integration", both using a login already done on the machine.
- One caution. A summary of xAI's acceptable use policy says it prohibits "accessing the Services through unauthorized automated or non-human means". Whether Ad Shots driving Grok Build counts as authorized is the unread part.
The likely route matches Claude: drive Grok Build on the customer's machine. Read the legal pages in a browser and ask xAI before building it.
Antigravity
Dropped. Google says that using other software to piggyback on Antigravity or Gemini CLI sign-in violates its terms, and has disabled accounts for it. Users reported another wave on 5 and 6 November 2026. Google's stated route for other tools is a Gemini API key, which Ad Shots already supports.
Reference images are a gap
The agent makes a reference layout image with OpenAI or Google, using an API key. A subscription sign-in may not cover image generation. Either this stays on the customer's own key, or it becomes a third credit item. Open
