Cheaper Inference launched an OpenAI-compatible inference reselling API claiming up to 60% discounts on every model, with automated checks to stay the cheapest provider.
- Catalog of 67 models (61 text, 5 image, 1 video) showing per-model discounts and 24h usage: deepseek-v4.1-flash at 30% off, glm-5.3 at 45% off, etc.
- Usage-based pricing, $5 minimum top-up, no monthly commitment; migrate by changing just base URL and API key
- Claims no routing surcharge and never above direct list price
- The punchline comment: "At the end of the day, we're all just reselling tokens."
