For developers
The Lobstack API.
OpenAI-compatible. Change one base URL, and every response tells you which model answered and what it cost.
from openai import OpenAI client = OpenAI( base_url="https://www.lobstack.ai/api/gateway/v1", api_key="lsk_live_…", ) client.chat.completions.create(model="auto", messages=[…])
Every call has a receipt.
The model that answered, the tokens, the cost, and what the same tokens would have cost on the priciest model your plan allows.
