Sign in with GitHub or Google, copy your sk-aig-... key, and add a card — it never charges you and puts $1 of credit across a curated trial catalog of 15 models (GLM-5.2, Kimi K2.7 Code, gpt-oss-120b, BGE-M3 embeddings, FLUX image, Moondream vision, Aura 2 TTS, Whisper Turbo STT and more). The $1 expires 30 days after you add the card. Top up any amount to unlock the full catalog.
Visit aigateway.sh and sign in with GitHub or Google. No phone verification, no invite codes. A payment method is required to call the API — adding a card is free and never charges you, and grants $1 in credit across a curated trial catalog of 15 models: zai-org/glm-5.2, moonshot/kimi-k2.7-code (frontier open-weight, 256K context, vision, native tool calling), BGE-M3 embeddings, FLUX-2 Klein image, Moondream vision, Aura 2 TTS, Whisper Turbo STT and more. The $1 expires 30 days after you add the card.
Install pip install aigateway-py openai, point the OpenAI SDK at https://api.aigateway.sh/v1, set model="zai-org/glm-5.2", and you're making production-grade LLM calls. Your $1 card credit covers GLM-5.2, model="moonshot/kimi-k2.7-code" and the rest of the curated trial catalog. Standard PAYG rate limits apply.
Top up $5 (or more) for pay-as-you-go. No subscription, no auto-renew. That unlocks the full catalog — Claude Opus 4.7, GPT-5.4, Gemini 3.1 Pro, the image and video models, everything. Your code stays the same.

No catch. The $1 card credit exists because we believe developers should try the platform end-to-end before paying — the card is a signup gate, not a charge. Most teams upgrade once they've shipped a prototype on the credit; the paid tier starts at a $5 minimum top-up with no subscription.
Yes — Kimi K2.7 Code is a 1T-parameter open-weight model benchmarked at SWE-Bench 68.2 and HumanEval 92.7. It's competitive with Claude Opus 4.7 on agentic coding at ~10x the price-per-token once you're paying.
For prototyping and personal projects, yes. For production traffic, the $1 and the curated catalog are the bottleneck — a $5 top-up unlocks higher throughput across the full catalog at pass-through pricing with no recurring charge.
