These guides describe this service, rather than replacing provider documentation. ## Who is it for? - Developers integrating an OpenAI-compatible application or script. - Claude Code users configuring a third-party Messages gateway. - Users who need to inspect input, output and cache usage for their API requests. ## Why choose a shared gateway? Use one service address and account to access models permitted for your key, inspect model groups and prices, and review usage. Start with the [integration guide](https://ai.wfpromax.xyz/guides/en/openai-compatible-api.html) or the [Claude Code guide](https://ai.wfpromax.xyz/guides/en/claude-code.html), depending on your client. ## What does compatible mean? Compatibility does not establish support for every provider model, parameter or feature. Verify streaming, tools and context limits for the selected model and client version. Check the catalog, then validate a small request. ## Relationship to provider products This service is independent of OpenAI, Anthropic and other model providers. Site API credits do not replace ChatGPT or Claude web subscriptions. Keys and balances from another service are not site-issued keys and balances. ## Before buying credits Read the [buying guide](https://ai.wfpromax.xyz/guides/en/buying-guide.html), confirm account pricing and limits, create a key, make a short request and check its usage. Keep real keys in secure configurations and share only redacted details with support. ## Questions before buying ### Can I use this gateway for projects in China and internationally? Use a site-issued key and the documented base URL in applications that allow custom API endpoints. Chinese and English guides describe the same service. Check connectivity, model permissions and client features in your actual deployment environment. ### How should I compare API service costs? Compare the same model's input, output and cache prices, billing units, account multipliers, expiry and usage records. Start with the [current catalog](https://ai.wfpromax.xyz/available-channels?entry=guide_en_service) and [billing guide](https://ai.wfpromax.xyz/guides/en/token-billing.html), then inspect the cost of your own short request. ### Is there a permanent free plan or guaranteed model availability? This page does not promise permanent free credits or a fixed model list. Trials, offers and permissions depend on the registration page, live catalog and account settings. Follow the [buying checklist](https://ai.wfpromax.xyz/guides/en/buying-guide.html) before purchasing. ## Choose a model. Connect your application.
