05 / About Anvat

Built by engineers who run agents in production — for engineers who do the same.

Anvat is an OpenAI and Anthropic compatible API gateway built for developers who ship with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and custom agents. Point ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL or your OpenAI SDK base URL at api.anvat.app — keep the same models, the same streaming, the same tool calls. Pay materially less.

Metered usage is billed at 30% below published list rates from Anthropic and OpenAI. Prepaid credit packs double your spend on every tier — pay $100, receive $200 in API credit. Most teams see roughly half the effective cost versus routing the same Opus 4.8, Sonnet 4.6, and Haiku 4.5 workloads direct to providers at full price.

Anvat is a drop-in LLM gateway and cheap Claude API alternative to juggling provider keys, brittle proxies, or opaque consumer plans. One key unlocks every frontier model with honest per-token billing, transparent activity logs, and subscriptions that undercut comparable Claude consumer plans. No fine print. No prompt storage. No training on your data.

06 / FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Everything teams ask before they swap their base URL.

What is Anvat?

Anvat is a drop-in Anthropic & OpenAI-compatible LLM gateway built for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and custom agents. It routes the same frontier models (Claude Opus 4.8, Sonnet 4.6, Haiku 4.5) through one API key at 30% below the lab's published list rates — no markup, no rounding, no fine print.

How does Anvat make Claude 30% cheaper?

We operate at scale on negotiated infrastructure and pass the savings on. Metered usage is billed exactly 30% under Anthropic's and OpenAI's public per-token rates. Prepaid credit packs also double on every tier — pay $100, receive $200 in API credit — bringing the effective cost to roughly half of going direct.

Is Anvat really a drop-in replacement?

Yes. Point ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL at https://api.anvat.app or set the OpenAI SDK base_url to https://api.anvat.app/v1. Keep the same SDK, the same streaming, the same tool calls, the same /v1/messages contract. Nothing else changes in your code.

Do you store or train on my prompts?

No. Anvat does not store prompts and does not train on customer data. We route requests, meter tokens, and log activity for billing transparency — that's it.

Which models are supported?

Live today: Claude Opus 4.8, Claude Sonnet 4.6, Claude Haiku 4.5. Rolling out next on the same endpoint: GPT-5.5, Gemini 3.1 Pro, Grok 4.3, and Kimi K2.5 — every model 30% under list price.

Who is Anvat for?

Developers and teams running Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and custom agents who want frontier-model quality without paying full provider list prices — and who want one key, honest per-token billing, and transparent activity logs instead of opaque consumer subscriptions.
