Overview

Quickstart

Get started with CheapestToken — one OpenAI-compatible endpoint for every model we route.

CheapestToken gives you access to every model we serve through a single API endpoint. Create a key, point your existing OpenAI SDK at us, and you are live — no new SDK to learn.

Get an API key

Sign in with your email and mint a key on the keys page. You pass it as the bearer key in any OpenAI client.

Keys are shown once — copy your key before you leave the page.

Using the OpenAI SDK

The OpenAI SDK works as a drop-in replacement — keep your code and change two things: the base URL and the key. The example below calls kimi-k3.

import os
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(
api_key=os.environ["CHEAPESTTOKEN_API_KEY"],
base_url="https://api.cheapest-token.com/v1",
)
resp = client.chat.completions.create(
model="kimi-k3.1-pro",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
)
print(resp.choices[0].message.content)
CheapestToken is prepaid: usage is deducted from your wallet balance, so there is never a surprise bill at the end of the month.

Explore models

Every model we serve is listed with public per-1M pricing and context limits — browse the models reference or the live models table to pick one, then swap the model field in the example above.
