APIKO

APIKO is a unified AI API that exposes text, image and video models from major providers through one OpenAI-compatible endpoint, with a live price and uptime marketplace, automatic failover and billing only for successful requests.

APIKO is an AI API gateway that puts models from many providers behind a single account and a single key. Text, image and video models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, Kimi, GLM, MiniMax and others are reachable through one OpenAI-compatible endpoint, so existing client code can be pointed at it without a rewrite. The service positions itself on price, advertising discounts of up to 90% against official list prices on selected models. The core of the product is a live model marketplace. A sortable table lists each model with its context window, the provider's list price for input and output tokens, the discounted APIKO price, and an uptime figure. Prices are quoted in USD per 1M tokens and move with upstream costs, and each request is billed at the discount in force when it is made. Availability is measured from real calls and scheduled probes, refreshed every five minutes. Image models are priced per request by resolution (1K, 2K and 4K) rather than per token. Each model has its own page with a playground for trying it before wiring it into code. Behind the endpoint, the routing layer handles automatic routing, failover between upstream sources and automatic refunds, with billing described as pay only for requests that succeed. New accounts receive a small amount of free credit, and an API key can be created straight after sign-up. The audience is developers, agent builders and small teams that call several model families and want one invoice, one key and a way to compare cost and reliability before choosing. It sits between direct provider accounts and other aggregator gateways: the draw is the discount level and the transparent price table. Buyers should note that many models still show insufficient uptime data, and that prices are not fixed over time.
