About Token1.US

A unified AI API gateway built by developers, for developers.

Updated July 20, 2026

Our Mission

Token1.US exists to solve a simple but frustrating problem: accessing AI models should be easy, reliable, and affordable for everyone — regardless of where they are in the world.

We built a unified API gateway that provides a single endpoint for all major AI models. One API key, one SDK, one billing account — and you can call GPT-4o, Claude Sonnet, GLM-4-Plus, DeepSeek-V3, and dozens more. No need to maintain separate accounts with each provider, deal with regional access restrictions, or juggle multiple SDK versions.

What We Do

Token1.US is an AI API gateway — a proxy service that sits between your application and multiple AI model providers. When you send a request through our gateway:

  1. We authenticate your API key and check your balance
  2. We route your request to the correct upstream provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Zhipu AI, DeepSeek)
  3. We translate the request format if needed for compatibility
  4. We stream the response back to you in real-time
  5. We bill your account based on exact token usage — transparently

All of this happens in milliseconds. From your application's perspective, it looks and feels exactly like calling the OpenAI API directly.

Why Developers Choose Token1.US

Full OpenAI API Compatibility

If your code uses the OpenAI SDK, you can switch to Token1.US by changing just one line — the base_url. No code rewrites, no new SDKs, no API learning curve. Every feature works: streaming, function calling, vision, JSON mode, and more.

Global Access Without Barriers

Many AI providers have regional restrictions. Token1.US removes these barriers. Developers from any country can access GPT, Claude, and other models through our global CDN infrastructure — no VPN, no proxy, no workaround needed.

Transparent Per-Token Pricing

We charge exactly what each model costs — no hidden markups, no monthly subscriptions, no minimum spending. You prepay a balance and are billed per-token for input and output. Every transaction is visible in your dashboard with exact token counts and costs.

Security and Privacy

We take security seriously. Here is how we protect your data:

Data handling: We act as a pass-through gateway. Your prompts and responses are forwarded to the upstream model provider and returned to you. We do not train models on your data or share it with third parties.
