# How to Register for OpenAI (Pro)

This feature requires the Pro version of the Taxonomies plugin

The TaxoPress Auto Terms feature has an integration with the OpenAI service. This guide will help you register for an account at OpenAI and get an API Key to use with TaxoPress.

Please note that your OpenAI subscription needs access to their API. TaxoPress and similar services can not work with [a ChatGPT-only subscription](https://help.openai.com/en/articles/6950777-what-is-chatgpt-plus). [Here's our guide to choosing the correct OpenAI plan](https://taxopress.com/chatgpt-ai-pricing/).
