Getting to the API is harder than using it.
AI platforms assume a USD card and easy provider signup. For most of the world that's a wall you hit before your first line of code.
A USD card you may not have
Provider billing assumes an international card. Without one the API is closed, no matter how good your idea is.
Subscriptions you barely use
Flat monthly plans bill for quota you never touch. Light, bursty usage is where they waste the most.
A key and SDK per provider
Every model you add means another account, another key to rotate, another SDK shape. The glue code outgrows the product.
Built so nothing surprises you.
One key, any model
Switch models by changing a string.
One prepaid wallet
No balance stranded across four accounts.
No subscription
Idle months cost you nothing at all.
Sub-cent transparency
Raw provider cost and your price, both logged.
Free cached hits
Repeat deterministic calls are served free.
Failed = free
An attempt that never streamed is never billed.
Wallet hard-stop
Never an overdraft, plus a low-balance email.
Three people, one wallet.
Everyday users
Good AI chat without a monthly plan. Top up a little, use it when you need it, stop paying when you stop.
Developers & indie builders
One key for many models, a request shape you already know, and billing granular enough to cost a single feature.
Anyone the card wall blocked
You never lacked the money — only a way to pay. Local rails make the API reachable from where you are.
See exactly what you'd pay.
A flat markup, both numbers logged, nothing hidden.
