ApiLink: One OpenAI-Compatible API for Every AI Model

ApiLink — Wed, 09 Sep 2026 22:01:57 +0000

If you are tired of juggling separate SDKs and keys for GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek and friends, ApiLink is built for that.

What it is

ApiLink is an OpenAI-compatible API gateway. You point your existing OpenAI client at a new baseURL, keep using the same chat-completions style calls, and pick any of 433+ models from 57 providers by changing the model name.

import OpenAI from "openai";

const client = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: "al-xxxxxxxxxxxx",
  baseURL: "https://api.apilink.io/v1",
});

const res = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello!" }],
});

Why it is useful

Drop-in compatibility — works with OpenAI SDKs, Cursor, Codex CLI, Aider and other OpenAI-compatible tools
Pay as you go — no subscription lock-in; transparent per-model rates
Official provider access — models are served through legitimate provider APIs
One key for many models — switch models without rewriting your stack

Who it is for

Indie hackers, product teams, and anyone shipping AI features who wants one endpoint instead of a pile of vendor integrations.
