WHY SWITCH
Chat, code, image, video, audio, embeddings, vision — all under a single OpenAI-compatible endpoint with per-token / per-image / per-second billing.
Swap the base URL and your existing OpenAI SDK code keeps working. No custom client library, no rewrite, no lock-in.
When the API isn't enough, rent a dedicated H100, H200, or B200 from the same account — same billing, same dashboard, no separate vendor.
Pay only for what you use. No hourly bucketing, no commitment, no idle charges. Prepaid credits never expire.
