For indie developers
Add open-model access without building another billing stack.
Use one OpenAI-compatible request shape and one prepaid crypto balance. MiniRouter routes available open models and returns the serving provider and request cost.
Solana payments from $0.50. Credits never expire and cannot be withdrawn.

Why it fits
Ship one integration and keep model choice open.
Your application uses one request format. Model IDs come from the public catalog, while the response tells you which provider served the call and what it cost.
- API shape
- OpenAI-compatible chat completions, completions, embeddings, and model listing.
- Billing
- One prepaid balance covers the approved public catalog.
- Limits
- Per-key rate and spend limits are available for unattended workloads.
