As mentioned on its official Bugcrowd page, the scope of the program includes OpenAI APIs, ChatGPT, corporate targets (to which OpenAI’s information may be disclosed), and the relevant OpenAI website and services.
The bounties start from $200 and go as high as $5000 for bugs related to corporate targets and $20,000 for ChatGPT issues.
