Long-context document analysis
A developer sends a 50,000-token input prompt and receives a 2,000-token response. Cost calculation: (50,000 / 1,000,000 * $0.15) + (2,000 / 1,000,000 * $0.50) = $0.0075 + $0.001 = $0.0085 total.
High-volume NSFW chat bot
An app processes 1 million input tokens and generates 50,000 output tokens. Cost calculation: (1,000,000 / 1,000,000 * $0.15) + (50,000 / 1,000,000 * $0.50) = $0.15 + $0.025 = $0.175 total.
Code generation workflow
A script sends a 10,000-token context window and receives a 4,096-token code block. Cost calculation: (10,000 / 1,000,000 * $0.15) + (4,096 / 1,000,000 * $0.50) = $0.0015 + $0.002048 = $0.003548 total.
Pay-As-You-Go Token Rates
Input tokens cost $0.15 per million tokens and output tokens cost $0.50 per million tokens. You never pay for idle time or monthly subscriptions because your billing is strictly tied to actual token consumption.
This structure allows you to predict costs precisely. Errors and refusals consume zero credits, so you only pay for successful responses. The uncensored model handles massive 100,000-token context windows without changing your per-token rate.

Crypto Top-Up and Bonus Credits
We accept only USDT (TRC20) and USDC (Base) for top-ups, keeping overhead low and passing savings to you. Minimum deposits start at $20, with maximum single transactions capped at $500.
Bonus credits reward larger deposits: you receive a +5% bonus for adding $50, a +10% bonus for $100, and a +15% bonus for $200.
Request Limits and Quotas
Each API key supports 300 requests per minute and allows up to 8 concurrent requests simultaneously. The maximum request body size is 8 MB, which comfortably fits the 100,000-token context window.
These limits ensure fair usage without throttling high-volume developers. If you exceed the concurrent request limit, your API will return a standard error code until slots free up.
One active key is permitted per account; generating a new key replaces the previous one instantly.
Credit Expiration and Refunds
Prepaid credit never expires, so you can top up once and use it for months. This eliminates the risk of losing funds due to a lapse in service.
Credits are non-refundable by default, but we fix errors like double charges through our Support page.
Common questions
Is cheap AI API keys the only pricing tier available?
Yes, we offer a single transparent rate for all users. Input tokens cost $0.15 per million tokens and output tokens cost $0.50 per million tokens. There are no hidden fees, tiered discounts, or monthly subscription tiers to manage.
Which payment methods do you accept?
Crypto only: USDT on TRC20 or USDC on Base, any whole amount from $20 to $500. Bonus credit applies from $50.
What happens if my request fails or times out?
You only pay for successful token generation. If a request fails, times out, or results in a refusal (other than the hard content limit), no tokens are consumed from your balance. This ensures you never pay for incomplete work.
How long does my prepaid credit last?
Your prepaid credit never expires, allowing you to top up once and use it over months or years. The only exception is the $0.50 trial credit, which is valid for 7 days from account creation. Bonus credits added during top-ups expire at the same time as your base credit.
