Your first call, and what it cost.

Three steps. The third one is the part worth staying for.

01

A key

Scoped to your organization and revocable from the Console. Stored only as a hash, so it is shown once. How keys are stored

02

One command

Paste it in a terminal. It asks for auto, so the router picks the cheapest tier that can answer.

curl https://www.lobstack.ai/api/gateway/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer lsk_live_…" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model":"auto","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"say hello"}]}'
Keep the www: the bare domain redirects, and a client drops the Authorization header when a redirect changes host.
03

The receipt

Once the call lands, what it cost appears here. This is the shape of it:

Sample· Developer plan · yours replaces it
You asked forauto
The router servedClaude Haiku 4.5

Cost$0.001565
The same tokens on Claude Fable 5.1, the priciest model the plan allows$0.0157
Saved on this request$0.0141

Nothing here charges you: a new organization runs on the free allowance, and you can revoke this key from API keys at any time. The same first call is one command with the CLI.
