Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An OpenAI-compatible API for open-weight models, with provider routing, model pricing, and pay-per-call funding.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-12 issue.

Field notes

The homepage lays out a developer workflow around an OpenAI-compatible /v1/chat/completions endpoint: choose a model, supply a bearer key, and send familiar chat JSON, with streaming shown in the example. Its model-and-pricing “market board” sits alongside usage, provider, funding, and API-key sections. The page states that inference can be routed across providers according to cost and that payment can happen per call through x402 or through a credit balance.
