Supported Models for AI Keys

AI Keys is OpenClacky's deeply optimized model service, exclusively available for OpenClacky client use. We provide a proxy layer with smart routing and automatic caching — no third-party service configuration required.

Overview

All prices include a 5% service fee — transparent billing, no hidden costs.

Flagship Series

Flagship models deliver the strongest reasoning capabilities, ideal for complex development tasks, deep research, and multi-step agent workflows.

Models & Pricing

Prices are in USD per 1,000 tokens (including 5% service fee).

Choosing a Model

Turbo Series

Turbo models offer fast responses at extremely low cost, perfect for high-frequency calls and budget-sensitive workloads.

DeepSeek peak/off-peak pricing (in sync with DeepSeek's official 2026-08-17 adjustment)

Starting August 17, 2026 (00:00 Beijing time), DeepSeek uses peak/off-peak billing: peak hours (09:00-12:00, 14:00-18:00 Beijing time) at standard rates, off-peak at half price. From August 23, 2026, weekends (Saturday & Sunday, Beijing time) are billed entirely at off-peak rates.

AI Key requests are billed by the actual time slot. Combined with our 99% cache hit rate, real-world spend on long conversations and Agent workflows drops by ~50% on top of that.

Models & Pricing

Current Pricing (before Aug 17)

Choosing a Model

Google Series

Google's Gemini family is natively multimodal (text / image / audio / video) with 1M-token long context. Text models excel at long-document processing and multimodal understanding; image models handle generation and editing.

🎉 Launch Promo — 20% off: or-gemini-3-5-flash, or-gemini-3-pro-image, and or-gemini-3-1-flash-image are now live. The whole Vertex Gemini lineup is 20% off for a limited time.

The tables below show standard prices (5% service fee included). Actual billing is table price × 0.8. End-of-promo will be announced separately.

Text Models & Pricing

Prices are in USD per 1,000 tokens (including 5% service fee, promo discount not included).

Image Generation Models & Pricing

Prices are in USD per 1,000 tokens (including 5% service fee, promo discount not included).

Image generation uses the standard /v1/images/generations endpoint, but is billed by token — and image tokens are priced differently from text tokens:

• Input — text and image-understanding tokens (prompt, reference images)
• Image Output — pixel tokens of the generated image (high rate)
• Text Output / Thinking — explanatory text and chain-of-thought tokens (low rate, same as text models)
• Cache Read — input tokens served from context cache

One image consumes ~1024–1290 image tokens (depending on resolution). With the promo, Flash Image is ~$0.064 per image and Pro Image is ~$0.128 per image.

Why Choose AI Keys

Blazing Fast, Direct Connection

Direct connection to official APIs for fast, reliable responses. No multi-layer proxy forwarding — latency minimized to the absolute lowest.

Official Pricing, Transparent Billing

Same pricing as official APIs, no hidden fees — pay only for what you use. All prices include a 5% service fee, with clear and transparent billing.

Industry-Leading Caching, Massive Savings

Our proxy intelligently caches repeated prompt segments, achieving up to 99% cache hit rates and reducing overall costs by up to 50% compared to similar services.

When your request hits the cache:

• Cache Read — pay only ~10% of the input price
• Cache Write — tokens written to cache are billed at ~125% of input price, retained for 5 minutes

Turbo series models feature automatic context caching — cached tokens are automatically billed at a lower rate with no extra steps.
