Models at cost.
No markup. No lock-in.
Choose the right model without markup, lock-in, or provider limits. Pay what the provider charges — nothing more.
- Zero AI inference markup
- Exact provider pricing published per model
- Top up and use — no subscription required
Switch models
without changing code
One API endpoint covers every provider. Claude, GPT-4o, Llama, Gemini, DeepSeek — change one string and you're running a different model.
- OpenAI-compatible SDK drop-in
- 500+ models, one base URL
- No migration cost when providers change pricing
Model Independence
No single model wins on every dimension. MegaBrain routes each request to the best model for the task — so you always get the highest score without paying for it across the board.
- Best coding score without overpaying for reasoning
- Fastest model when speed matters, smartest when it doesn't
- Switch models in one line — no migration

Frequently asked questions
What is MegaBrain Gateway?+
A universal routing layer for AI inference. Send a request to one OpenAI-compatible endpoint and we route it to the right model across 500+ models from 60+ providers, with no markup on token costs.
How does cost visibility work?+
Every request is logged with model, token counts, and cost at the exact provider rate. You see per-user and per-team breakdowns in the dashboard — so you know where the budget is going before it becomes a problem.
Which coding agents are supported?+
Any agent that supports a custom OpenAI-compatible base URL works with MegaBrain: Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, Cline, OpenCode, Hermes, KiloClaw, Windsurf, and more. See our cookbook docs for setup guides.
Do I need a subscription?+
No. Start free with free models, then pay pay-as-you-go at exact provider rates. No monthly lock-in.
How does Auto Model choose a model?+
You pick a tier — Frontier, Balanced, or Free — and Auto Model routes each request through the model strategy that matches your capability and cost preference.
Can I bring my own provider keys?+
Yes. Plug in your existing Anthropic, OpenAI, Google or other provider API keys. Pay for the routing, not the tokens.
