> ChatAnywhere API
ChatAnywhere (GPT_API_free) is a widely used AI API relay providing unified access to global models including OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, and DeepSeek. It offers a GitHub-authorized free tier and low-cost paid access with endpoints optimized for users in mainland China and overseas.
// pros
- Open-source project with 29K+ stars, high community attention and positive perception
- OpenAI-standard compatible, simple to configure, works with common clients
- Genuinely provides callable free keys with clear limits; .org is the official overseas endpoint (not a spoof)
- Scamadviser rates the project's .tech domain as legitimate/safe
// cons
- Free quota is tight (high-end models only 5/day), suited only for light personal use
- As a relay, upstream key sourcing and compliance can't be fully verified; avoid sensitive data
- Free keys are explicitly personal non-commercial only; commercial use requires payment
Good for individuals lightly trying GPT/DeepSeek, with relatively high open-source transparency; but the free quota is small and it is a relay—don't send sensitive data or use it commercially/in production.
community_reputation
ChatAnywhere has a fairly good reputation in the Chinese community (open-source, many stars, widely covered by blogs), and third-party checks don't flag it as a scam; main limits are the small free quota and the relay's inherent privacy/compliance uncertainty.
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: Free keys, personal non-commercial only: ~200 req/day per IP&key (GPT-5/4o/4.1 5/day, DeepSeek 30/day, small models 200/day) ≈ $2/mo equivalent at typical token volumes.

$ Does ChatAnywhere API have a free tier?
Yes — ChatAnywhere API offers a free tier that we value at roughly $2.00 in free credits (estimate — derived from rate-limited usage at pay-as-you-go prices). Always confirm current limits on ChatAnywhere API's official pricing page — free tiers change without notice.
$ How much does ChatAnywhere API cost per 1M tokens?
ChatAnywhere API 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 ChatAnywhere API safe to use?
Uprouter rates ChatAnywhere API as medium risk. Large community-driven project (40K+ stars) with long-term operation. As a third-party relay, it carries inherent upstream account pool risks, but maintains high transparency via public status pages and documentation. Risk ratings are editorial, evidence-based, and never influenced by affiliate relationships.
$ Can I use ChatAnywhere API through Uprouter Connect?
Yes — ChatAnywhere API is Connect-compatible. Add your ChatAnywhere API API key in Uprouter Connect (encrypted at rest) and route requests to it through one OpenAI- and Claude-compatible API, optionally behind failover aliases. Uprouter meters the traffic in compute at the provider's listed rate.
