Usage examples
A developer running a script to summarize 500 long articles
Processing 500 articles with 4,000 input tokens each requires 2,000,000 input tokens. Generating 500 summaries of 1,000 tokens each requires 500,000 output tokens. The cost is (2,000,000 / 1,000,000) * $0.15 + (500,000 / 1,000,000) * $0.50 = $0.30 + $0.25 = $0.55 total.
A coder testing function calling with complex JSON payloads
Sending a prompt with 2,000 input tokens and receiving a 2,000 token JSON response costs (2,000 / 1,000,000) * $0.15 + (2,000 / 1,000,000) * $0.50 = $0.0003 + $0.001 = $0.0013 per request.
A content creator generating variations for a marketing campaign
Creating 100 variations with 1,000 input tokens and 500 output tokens each uses 100,000 input tokens and 50,000 output tokens. The cost is (100,000 / 1,000,000) * $0.15 + (50,000 / 1,000,000) * $0.50 = $0.015 + $0.025 = $0.04 total.
Pay-per-token pricing model
Our API charges strictly by token volume, ensuring you pay only for what you process. Input tokens cost $0.15 per million, and output tokens cost $0.50 per million. Errors do not consume credit, so failed requests are free. This structure keeps costs predictable for high-volume workloads.
Crypto top-ups and bonus credit
We accept only USDT (TRC20) and USDC (Base) for top-ups. Minimum deposits start at $20 and go up to $500. We add bonus credit to your account: 5% for deposits of $50, 10% for $100, and 15% for $200. Your prepaid balance never expires, allowing you to top up once and use it over time.
Trial credit for new accounts
New accounts receive $0.50 of trial credit to test the API immediately. The credit is valid for 7 days, giving you enough time to verify integration and performance. This allows developers to assess the uncensored model without financial commitment.
Rate limits and request quotas
Each API key supports 300 requests per minute and 8 concurrent requests. The maximum request body size is 8 MB. These limits prevent sudden spikes from draining your balance unexpectedly. You can generate a new key to replace an old one if needed, maintaining access while managing limits.
Common questions
Do I pay for failed requests?
No, errors do not consume your prepaid credit. You only pay for tokens that are successfully processed and returned by the model. This ensures your budget is used efficiently for actual output.
What crypto networks are supported for top-ups?
We accept USDT on the TRC20 network and USDC on the Base network. Deposits range from $20 to $500.
Does my prepaid credit expire?
No, your prepaid credit never expires. You can top up once and use the balance over months or years. This flexibility suits developers who process varying amounts of text over time.
How do I get started with the API?
Sign up with your Google account or email to receive an API key instantly. You can then use the $0.50 trial credit to test the endpoint. Top up with crypto when you need more balance for production workloads.
Your key is almost ready
Register, copy the token, point your SDK to the new base URL. That is all there is to it.
