> APIPlus
APIPlus is a third-party AI API relay built on the New-API framework, reselling access to Claude, GPT, and Gemini. It offers a small registration credit and an intermittently available 'free channel' with deep discounts, primarily targeting the low-cost reseller market.
// pros
- OpenAI-compatible with a callable /v1 API, console, and generatable keys
- ~$1 sign-up credit allows small-scale trial
- Pricing close to official rates, supports invoicing, no major token-dilution complaints yet
- Offers a 7-day full refund (minus 15% processing + gateway fees)
// cons
- Not genuinely free—the 'free channel' is a time-limited deep discount, not zero-cost
- Run by a third-party individual/small team; long-term stability unproven, shutdown risk
- Support entry hard to find on-site, requires adding QQ contact
- Upstream key provenance and model authenticity cannot be independently verified
For cheap trials, top up small amounts and prefer the sign-up credit; never pre-pay large sums. Treat it as a low-cost paid relay rather than a free site, and note the 'free channel' is not zero-cost and may change or stop at any time.
community_reputation
V2EX promo threads and Zhihu relay lists describe it as a relatively new, 'relatively legitimate' relay with near-official pricing and invoicing, with no major token-dilution complaints yet; but it lacks long-term reputation, and generic industry risks (individual operation, possible sudden shutdown) still apply.
imported analysis — independent third party, not Uprouter editorial · verify before relying on it
How we estimated this: the free allowance is converted to a dollar value using the provider’s own pay-as-you-go rates for the models a typical developer would reach for. When the allowance is metered in requests, tokens or minutes rather than dollars, we assume median usage of the cheapest capable model. Because assumptions are involved, the figure carries the est. flag — treat it as an order of magnitude, not a quote.
note: Grants ~$1 registration credit for new users.
| Plan | Type | Monthly | Input /1M | Output /1M | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free tier (source-reported) | free | — | — | — | About $1 trial credit on sign-up; an intermittent daily 'free channel' (GPT at 0.01x, not truly zero-cost); no long-term fully-free flagship models—the service is fundamentally low-cost paid. |
Pricing normalized from public sources — always verify with the provider.

$ Does APIPlus have a free tier?
Yes — APIPlus offers a free tier that we value at roughly $1.00 in free credits (estimate — derived from rate-limited usage at pay-as-you-go prices). Always confirm current limits on APIPlus's official pricing page — free tiers change without notice.
$ How much does APIPlus cost per 1M tokens?
APIPlus does not publish simple per-1M-token pricing (it may bill per request, per output, or via a subscription plan). Check their official pricing page for exact figures.
$ Is APIPlus safe to use?
Uprouter rates APIPlus as medium risk. Standard New-API relay with typical operational risks. Stable enough for development but the focus on 'deep discount' and '0.01x' channels suggests potentially lower-quality or 'jailbroken' upstream sources. Risk ratings are editorial, evidence-based, and never influenced by affiliate relationships.

Uprouter runs its own probes; best-effort, not a guarantee. Probe results depend on our network location and cadence — for production, always use the provider’s own status page.
risk_&_confidence
Standard New-API relay with typical operational risks. Stable enough for development but the focus on 'deep discount' and '0.01x' channels suggests potentially lower-quality or 'jailbroken' upstream sources.
Confidence reflects how much verifiable evidence (official docs, probe history, community reports) backs this entry. Risk is our editorial assessment of operator reliability and terms — not financial advice.
