One OpenAI-compatible endpoint for OpenAI, Claude and Gemini models
Send requests in the familiar chat-completions format to a single base URL, so existing OpenAI SDKs and wrappers work with minimal edits.
Reach OpenAI, Claude and Gemini models from the same credentials instead of juggling three separate accounts and billing setups.
Swapping providers usually means changing a base URL and a model name rather than rewriting application code.
Choose the model that best fits a task's price and quality needs, helping keep inference spend under control.
One unified API for 100+ AI models, with insurance when output disappoints
Access Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Qwen and more from a single endpoint, sourced from official providers or authorized cloud partners — no proxies and no degraded copies.
Hallucinated output, excessive latency and low throughput are automatically compensated, and each compensated case is anonymized and returned to you as a bad-case sample.
Enable ZenMux Auto and the system analyses each prompt to pick the model that delivers the best quality at the lowest cost, balancing the quality/price trade-off for you.
Multi-provider failover with capacity reserves keeps applications running when a channel rate-limits or fails, while Cloudflare edge acceleration reduces latency worldwide.
