If you are still evaluating options, https://api.getapiomni.com/ might be worth a look: one OpenAI-compatible /v1 key across GLM / DeepSeek / Qwen / Kimi, top up from $1, real-time balance, card / Apple Pay / Google Pay / PayPal, no region locks. Zed + DeepSeek/MiniMax/KimiK as the way to go - one OpenAI-compatible key feeds all of them.
@brucethemoose You bought a GLM coding plan and hit throttling when it gets busy. A pay-per-token setup avoids busy-period throttling differently: live balance, top up from $1, one OpenAI-compatible /v1 key for GLM/DeepSeek/Qwen/Kimi, card / Apple Pay / Google Pay / PayPal, no region restrictions. Worth comparing for your workflow.

If that post matches your current situation, one OpenAI-compatible endpoint at https://api.getapiomni.com/ covers GLM / DeepSeek / Qwen / Kimi with a single key — top up from $1, real-time balance, card / Apple Pay / Google Pay / PayPal, no region locks. OpenRouter $30-50/mo plus venice $30-50/mo — consolidating the per-token spend on one balance does the same job for less. Happy to share current per-model pricing if useful.

Moving from Claude to Kimi K2.6 for cost is the trend we serve — direct Kimi access on one key, no OpenRouter uplift. Happy to share current per-model pricing if useful.
@unglueclass23 You are paying $10/mo for a US-hosted OpenRouter front-end while most of your usage is DeepSeek V4 Flash. Consider one OpenAI-compatible /v1 key with a live balance: DeepSeek, GLM, Qwen, Kimi in one place, top up from as little as $1, pay with card / Apple Pay / Google Pay / PayPal - and no US-only hosting as the default. Works with any chat front-end that speaks the OpenAI API.
