# Every model.

One endpoint.

Route across OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek and more behind a single API. Model groups, fallback routing, and usage billing - built in.

No credit card · First 1M tokens free

## Six primitives. One gateway.

Each works on its own. Together they replace the model-routing layer for every app you ship.

### Model Groups

Package backends, models and routing policy behind one stable name your app calls directly.

### Routing

Single-backend, weighted load-balancing, fallback, or conditional routing by request metadata.

### Multiple Providers

OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, OpenRouter and any custom OpenAI-compatible service.

### Coding Plans

Run coding-plan backends beside credit-based keys, with quota and balance visibility.

### Thinking Output

One reasoning request format; read standardized reasoning text across every model.

### Usage & Billing

Track spend and tokens per group, key and customer tier in a single console.

## Failover before your users notice.

Define a policy once. The gateway evaluates weights, retries, and fallbacks on every request — and hands back a standardized response no matter which backend answered.

## Pay for credits, not seats.

All plans draw credit at the same $0.02 / 1M-token rate.
