Pay per call, not per token
Predictable flat pricing per API call. No token math, no surprise bills. Prices fetched live from the public API.
| Model | Price per call |
|---|---|
| MiniMax-M2.7 | $0.00050/call |
| MiniMax-M2.7-highspeed | $0.00050/call |
| MiniMax-M3 | $0.00150/call |
| kimi-k2.6 | $0.00250/call |
| glm-5.2 | $0.00300/call |
Only models we've actually tested are listed here. If an upstream provider becomes unstable, we swap it out - that's part of how prices stay this low.
Built for cost-sensitive builders
Everything you need to ship. Nothing you don't.
Pay per call
Flat price per request. No token-counting, no surprise bills. Idle months cost nothing.
Crypto payment
USDT (TRC20, BSC) via epusdt. No credit card required.
OpenAI-compatible
Point your existing SDK's base_url at api.apilane.one/v1. Zero migration cost, works with the openai Python/Node SDKs.
No prompt logging
Request logs record usage for billing only - never your prompt content. Rotate or delete keys anytime from the console.
No subscription
No monthly fee, no platform fee, no lock-in. Deposit $2, call until it runs out, top up when you need more.
Multi-format adapters
OpenAI and Anthropic request formats both supported. One endpoint, every model, your preferred schema.
Two minutes to your first call
OpenAI-compatible. If your code already calls OpenAI, you're done.

}'Trust & security
Low prices don't have to mean shady. Here's exactly what we do and don't do.
No prompt logging
apilane itself does not store or log your prompt content. Requests are forwarded to upstream model providers to get a response - we cannot control what those providers do with your data.
Responses passed through unmodified
We do not rewrite, filter, or inspect model responses. What the model returns is what you get.
FAQ
How do you keep prices this low?
We aggregate multiple upstream providers and route calls efficiently, passing the savings to you. Per-call pricing also means you only pay for what you use - no idle capacity fees. Prices run 1/10 to 1/60 of official API rates depending on the model.
Do you store my prompts?
apilane itself does not store or log your prompt content. Requests are forwarded to upstream model providers to get a response - we cannot guarantee what those providers do with your data. If you are sending sensitive prompts, treat any third-party API the same way and avoid submitting content you would not want forwarded.
How do I pay?
Deposit $2, $5, $10, or $20. We accept USDT (TRC20, BSC) via epusdt. No credit card required.
Is this OpenAI-compatible?
Yes. The endpoint at api.apilane.one/v1 is fully OpenAI-compatible. Any code using the official openai Python or Node.js SDK works by changing only base_url and the API key. Anthropic-format requests are also supported.
What models are supported?
The pricing table above lists every per-call model we currently offer - MiniMax-M3, kimi-k2.6, glm-5.2 and others. We only list models we have actually tested. If an upstream provider becomes unstable, we swap it out, which is part of how we keep prices low.
What if my upstream fails?
If a provider is down, requests fail fast and you are not charged for failed calls. You can retry or switch models. Live status is at status.apilane.one.
