What is Speka?

Speka is a unified AI API gateway that gives developers one OpenAI-compatible API key and endpoint (https://speka.me/v1) to call 16 frontier models — including DeepSeek V4 Flash, Llama 3.3 70B, Mistral Large 3, Kimi K2.6, GPT-OSS 120B, and FLUX — without creating separate vendor accounts or managing multiple SDKs. The API supports native tool-calling, streaming, and JSON mode for agentic applications. Pricing is usage-based (per token), with a free tier requiring no credit card.

Why Speka

Built for agents, ready for production

Skip the infrastructure, the rate-limit headaches and the per-vendor SDKs. One gateway, one bill, full observability — so you can ship agents, not plumbing.

Every model, one key

Reasoning, chat, code, vision, embeddings and image generation — all behind a single endpoint and key.

Agent-native API

Native tool-calling, streaming and JSON mode. Point the OpenAI SDK at our base URL — no rewrites, no lock-in.

Predictable rate limits

Per-plan RPM and concurrency, enforced fairly with clear headers so you never get surprised.

Usage-based pricing

Pay per token. Monthly included usage on every plan plus pay-as-you-go overage. No lock-in.

Built-in analytics

Track spend, tokens and latency by key, model and day — right in your dashboard.

Secure by design

Keys are hashed at rest, scoped per project, and revocable instantly. Row-level isolated data.

How it works

Live in three steps

01

Create an account

Sign up in seconds and get a free API key with usage included — no card needed.

02

Point your SDK

Set the base URL to our gateway and use any model id. Works with the OpenAI SDK, LangChain and Vercel AI SDK.

03

Ship & scale

Monitor usage, set limits and upgrade as you grow. We handle routing, failover and infrastructure.

Trust & security

Secure by default

Your keys and data are protected at every layer — so you can build with confidence.

Hashed API keys

Keys are hashed at rest and shown only once. Scope them per project and revoke instantly.

Encrypted in transit

All traffic is TLS-encrypted end to end between your app, our gateway and model providers.

Row-level isolation

Your usage, keys and metadata are isolated per account at the database level.

Prompts never trained on

We pass prompts through to generate responses — never to train models. Delete your data anytime.

From the field

Teams ship faster on Speka

Swapped our OpenAI base URL and had DeepSeek-R1 in prod the same afternoon. The tool-calling just worked.

A
A. Nakamura
Staff Engineer

One bill for every model we test means we stopped juggling six vendor dashboards. Spend is finally legible.

M
M. Okafor
Founder, AI startup

Failover across capacity has kept our agents up through provider outages. That reliability earned our trust.

How Speka compares

Speka vs OpenRouter vs Together AI

Speka is a lean, OpenAI-compatible gateway: 16 frontier models from 7 labs, transparent pay-per-token pricing with no overage penalties, and a genuinely free tier needing no card. OpenRouter and Together AI offer far broader catalogs, but Speka trades breadth for a curated, predictable, drop-in-simple developer experience.

In plain terms

How developers use Speka

What is an agentic AI API?

An agentic AI API is an endpoint built for multi-step, tool-calling workflows — not just single-turn chat completions. It supports structured function calls, parallel tool use, and streaming responses so an AI agent can reason, act, and iterate without blocking. Speka implements this natively across every model in the catalog without per-model SDK customization.

Which frontier AI models can I access through Speka?

Speka provides API access to frontier open models across reasoning, chat, code, vision, embeddings, and image generation — including DeepSeek V4 Flash, NVIDIA Nemotron Super 49B, Meta Llama 3.3 70B, Mistral Large 3, Moonshot Kimi K2.6, OpenAI GPT-OSS 120B, and Black Forest Labs FLUX. All are called through a single endpoint using standard OpenAI message formatting.

Can I use Speka with the OpenAI SDK?

Yes. Change base_url to https://speka.me/v1 and replace your OpenAI key with your Speka key. No other code changes are required — Speka works with the OpenAI Python and Node.js SDKs, LangChain, the Vercel AI SDK, and any library that accepts a configurable base URL.

Is Speka's AI API production-ready?

Speka targets 99.9% uptime, publishes a live system status page, enforces per-plan rate limits with transparent headers, hashes API keys at rest, scopes them per project, and isolates data at the row level. Predictable concurrency limits and clear overage signals make it suitable for high-throughput production applications and agents.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Speka is a unified AI API gateway that provides one OpenAI-compatible endpoint and key for frontier models including DeepSeek V4 Flash, Llama 3.3, Mistral, Kimi K2.6 and FLUX. Developers change the base_url in their existing SDK — no other code changes required.
Yes. We implement the OpenAI Chat Completions, Embeddings and Images endpoints. Point any OpenAI SDK or client at our base URL, set your Speka key, and use any model id from the catalog — no other code changes.
Models run on our managed inference infrastructure across multiple capacity providers. We route each request to healthy capacity and fail over automatically, so you get one stable endpoint instead of managing several vendors.
Every plan includes a monthly usage allowance measured in real model spend. You're billed per token at transparent published rates. Exceed your allowance and you simply pay standard per-token rates — no overage penalties.
Yes. Set hard spend caps and per-key rate limits from your dashboard, and get alerts as you approach them. Keys can be scoped per project and revoked instantly.
We transmit prompt content to model providers solely to generate responses. We store request metadata (model, token counts, latency) for analytics and billing, but we do not use your prompts to train models.
You get $1 of model usage every month, 1 API key, 10 requests per minute and access to all open models — enough to prototype and test. Upgrade only when you need more.
