That's what I don't understand from the start. Why not just look who uses the API and charge based on that?
Google, you pay 10x per API call. ChatGPT, you pay also 10x. Random LLM, you pay 5x. Apollo, you 2x, random app with 1k downloads from the play store, you pay 0. Bumm.
Okay, not in this obvious way, because then they can complain for discrimination, but maybe some tiered one aimed against the big single-entity players. Also: per API key/user, not just per API key.
