Version Do I need my own ChatGPT Codex account?

Yes. WP Godmode is powered by ChatGPT Codex, and you bring your own account — that way you keep direct control over usage, billing and rate limits with OpenAI.

For professional WordPress work we recommend the Codex Pro plan (not Business). Pro ships with significantly higher usage limits, which is what you want once you start running real work through Godmode. Freelancers running a few sites are usually comfortable on Pro; agencies shipping across a full portfolio almost always want it too.

Codex isn’t the only option, though — you can also connect a Claude (Anthropic) account from your dashboard if you prefer.
