Questions
Which tools and SDKs work with LowCostRouter?
Anything that talks to the OpenAI, Anthropic or Gemini API: the official SDKs and the editors, agents and libraries built on them. Set the base URL to https://api.lowcostrouter.com (add /v1 for the OpenAI format) and use your LowCostRouter key.
How do I pay?
You top up your balance with cryptocurrency. Each request is charged from the balance by the number of tokens it used. There is no subscription.
Do long requests time out?
No. We don't limit how long a request runs: a stream stays open while the model is generating, even for many minutes.
Why do I sign in with Telegram?
It takes one tap, and you don't need an email or a password. We receive only your Telegram name, username and profile photo.
Do you store my prompts?
No. For billing we keep the model, token counts and time of each request, but not the text of prompts or responses.
Which models are available?
Claude, GPT, Gemini and Grok, and new versions are added as they come out. The models page lists every model with its price and the API formats it supports.
