Hanukkah gift ideas for techies who use AI daily
For someone who already lives in ChatGPT or Claude, another USB light is noise. Prepaid AI credit is the useful small gift.
Ideas that fit Hanukkah
- One $25-$50 pack as the “big” night
- A printable card in an envelope for a night that needs something wrap-able
- A short list of models they can try with the balance (Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek)
- Skip surprise Plus subscriptions that renew in January
Lab-specific cards work if you know they are GPT-only (OpenAI cards). Multi-model credit is safer when you do not.
Brass sells prepaid packs of $10 to $250 you can gift by email or as a card you print. Credits never expire. The recipient spends them across Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok and DeepSeek. US only, 18 and over; an unclaimed gift returns to you after 90 days.
Still shopping for the holidays? A Brass pack goes by email or as a card you print at home, so it is there the day you give it. Send a pack.
