NanoGPT
Pay-as-you-go access to hundreds of AI models on the web and by API
What is NanoGPT?
NanoGPT is a web app and API from NanoGPT LLC that gives access to several hundred text, image, video and audio models, including ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, without a separate subscription to each. Usage is paid from a prepaid balance at each model's list price, and a $12 a month Pro plan adds a weekly token allowance on selected models. By default, prompts and conversations are not stored on its servers.
NanoGPT has a free plan. Paid plans start at $12 per month (Pro), or pay as you go at model list prices. See every plan
Good for
- Occasional users who would rather pay per message than subscribe
- Developers who want one API key for many model providers
- People who want to pay with cryptocurrency or without an account
Worth knowing
- The free allowance is a single model on the web; everything else needs a prepaid balance or the Pro plan.
- Pro's weekly allowance covers only the models included in the subscription; others, such as Claude Opus 5.5, are still billed per use.
- Pinning a specific provider by hand adds 5%, and bring-your-own-key requests are billed at 5% of the normal model cost.
- Access is through the website and the API; the pricing page mentions no desktop or mobile apps.
Key features
- Hundreds of models in one place
- The model directory lists 641 text, 224 image, 183 video, 98 audio and 13 3D models, including ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, all used from one chat interface and one balance.
- Per-use billing at list prices
- Text models are billed at the provider's list price per million tokens with no markup, and deposits carry no percentage fee. Each API response reports the exact cost charged.
- OpenAI-compatible API
- The API follows OpenAI's chat completions and Responses formats and Anthropic's Messages format, and also covers images, video, audio, embeddings, web search and batch jobs.
- No stored prompts by default
- Prompt and conversation content is not kept on NanoGPT's servers unless you turn on sync or sharing, and the service can be used in an anonymous session with no account.
- Card and crypto payments
- A balance can be started from $1 by card or $0.10 in cryptocurrency. Selected API endpoints also accept accountless crypto payments with no API key.
- TEE-backed models
- Some models run in trusted execution environments, and the API returns attestation reports and request signatures so that this can be verified.
