The main product is fine, but the details ruin it.
I switched to TypingMind specifically to get out of the subscription trap. I wanted API-based, pay-as-you-use. But the models do need to search the web. Particularly when doing research. Now it turns out the websearch ability is limited to a) Google (depreciated), Perplexity (starts at 50 dollar) and Serp (subscription at 25 dollars a month after the first 1000 search -which is nothing). I could set up an MCP server. All the options are there. But it turns out that both Local and Typing Mind Cloud options DO NOT work UNLESS you have an enterprise account. Mere premium users are not allowed. It took me DAYS and money to find this out, it is not clear from the documentation. Plugins are not an option - they are being depreciated. So I feel misled.
