FAQ
How do I know the API keys serve the real model? APIMaster uses black-box LLM fingerprint detection to distinguish genuine GPT-5 or Claude from cheaper substitutes. Every provider is tested before listing.
Is the API OpenAI-compatible? Yes. Same /v1/chat/completions endpoint. Replace your base URL with the APIMaster endpoint — works with OpenAI Python SDK, LangChain, LiteLLM, Cursor, Claude Code, and any OpenAI-compatible tool.
Which AI models are available? GPT-5.4, GPT-5.5, Claude Sonnet 4.6, Claude Opus 4.7/4.8, Claude Fable 5, DeepSeek V4 Flash, DeepSeek V4 Pro, MiniMax M3, and GPT-Image-2. New models are added as they pass fingerprint verification.
Do I need to choose a channel myself? No. APIMaster automatically picks the best route — first filtering for fingerprint-verified channels, then selecting the lowest-cost option that meets stability thresholds.
