LiteAPI is an AI aggregation platform first — cost savings are a powerful, but secondary, benefit. When we secure preferred contracts and credits from cloud partners, model providers, and VCs, we pass those inference savings directly to our customers. Because these deals can change over time, discounts are variable and may differ by provider, model, or period. If our underlying cost structure changes, we’ll give at least 30 days’ notice before adjusting prices.

Unlike OpenRouter, LiteAPI focuses solely on production-grade models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google—an aggregation layer first, with variable discounts on inference (sometimes up to ~50%) when we secure preferred contracts and VC-backed credits.

Provider training is opt-out by default. Where OpenAI / Anthropic / Google support it, we set the flags so your data is not used to improve their models. All traffic is encrypted with TLS 1.3, and your keys are stored with AES-256 encryption. We never log or store your prompt data. LiteAPI does not use or store your prompts or completions for training or analytics.

Yes. All major model capabilities (text, vision, embeddings, and function calling) are supported where available from the provider.

Yes. Teams spending over $50,000/month on LLM usage can contact us for custom discounts and dedicated support.

Our edge routing adds typically < 15 ms on top of the model latency. For most workloads the cost savings far outweigh this overhead.
