Getting started
Introduction
One account, one balance, one key, and three ways to call the same models.
Unaligned gives you access to leading open models through the browser chat and through an HTTP API. You pay per token from a prepaid balance, topped up in crypto. No subscription, no email, no request log.
Pick a format
The API speaks three formats. They share the same key, balance and models: only the shape of requests and responses changes. Each one has its own base URL, so a tool only ever needs one.
| Format | Use it for | Base URL |
|---|---|---|
| Unaligned | Your own code. The simplest: send a prompt, get text, cost and balance back. | https://api.unaligned.pw/v1 |
| OpenAI | Apps, IDEs and SDKs built for OpenAI: Cursor, Cline, Continue, Zed, Open WebUI… | https://api.unaligned.pw/openai/v1 |
| Anthropic | Claude Code and other tools or SDKs built for Anthropic. | https://api.unaligned.pw/anthropic |
Every route accepts the key as Authorization: Bearer … or as x-api-key: …, whatever the format. See Authentication.
