> Helyx AI

helyxai.space

Helyx markets itself as a unified OpenAI-compatible API gateway for frontier models (Claude Opus 5, Claude Haiku 4.5, GPT-5.4 Nano, Gemini, Kimi, DeepSeek) claiming 50+ models behind one endpoint, with a published rate card of five active models including DeepSeek-V4 Pro at $0.400 in / $0.750 out per 1M tokens (50% off its $0.800/$1.50 list) and MiniMax M3 at $0.300/$1.200. Signup is Google or GitHub with no password, and the account is credited with $10.000000 free: $2.000000 instantly plus $8.000000 released on request. Paid top-ups are crypto-only (USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH, TRON) and every deposit is doubled ($5 pays $10 credit, $25 pays $50), with credits stated to never expire and no subscriptions or daily caps. The domain in this listing, helyx.ai, is dead - it returns a 404 DEPLOYMENT_NOT_FOUND from Vercel - and the live Helyx AI site is served from helyxai.space.

// pros

A concrete signup grant: every account starts with $10.000000 credit, of which $2.000000 is instant and $8.000000 is released on request, stated on both the homepage and the pricing page.
Deposit doubling on every top-up ($5 to $10 credit, $10 to $20, $25 to $50), which is a 2x effective balance on paid usage.
Low published rates on the models actually listed: DeepSeek-V4 Flash $0.140/$0.280 per 1M tokens, Gemma4 31B $0.200/$0.500, Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite $0.250/$1.50, plus a 50% discount on DeepSeek-V4 Pro.
Credits are documented as non-expiring with no subscription and no daily caps, and the balance never auto-debits.
OpenAI-compatible endpoint at https://helyxai.space/v1/chat/completions, so existing clients and agent tools work by changing the base URL.

// cons

The listed domain helyx.ai is dead (404 DEPLOYMENT_NOT_FOUND), so any link or bookmark built on it breaks; the working site is a different domain with its own branding.
Only five models are listed as active on the model directory despite the "50+ models" claim, and the homepage still contains unfilled template values ("Your 0 daily claim is waiting").
Payment is crypto-only, all credit purchases are "strictly non-refundable under any circumstances", and termination at the operator's sole discretion forfeits any remaining balance.
Free-tier mechanics are enforced with device fingerprinting: the privacy policy stores a cookie device identifier plus a hashed digest of browser and hardware characteristics to limit free tokens to one account per device.
The free grant is split and conditional: $8.000000 of the $10 requires a manual release by support, and the operator prioritises "free token grants" before deducting purchased credits, so spend attribution is opaque.

Treat Helyx as a cheap experimental endpoint for non-sensitive prompts, funded with the $10 signup credit rather than a large crypto deposit, and keep a mainstream provider alongside it for anything business-critical. It can be a reasonable way to route side projects across several model families through one OpenAI-compatible key, but only if you accept that the brand's primary domain is already dead and support is a Telegram handle.

// faq

$ Does Helyx AI have a free tier?

Yes — Helyx AI offers a free tier that we value at roughly $10.00 in free credits. Always confirm current limits on Helyx AI's official pricing page — free tiers change without notice.

$ How much does Helyx AI cost per 1M tokens?

The cheapest model we track at Helyx AI is Free per 1M input tokens and Free per 1M output tokens. This is normalized from Helyx AI's published pricing — verify with the provider before purchasing, since prices change frequently.

$ Is Helyx AI safe to use?

Uprouter rates Helyx AI as high risk. Risk is high on every operator dimension. There is no registered company name, registered address, or corporate entity published anywhere on the site; the only contact channels are a Pakistani WhatsApp number (+92 312 5893198) and a Telegram handle (@kairalmas), which means there is effectively no recourse and no identifiable counterparty. Payment is crypto-only into a non-refundable balance, and the Terms state the operator may terminate an account "at its sole discretion, without notice or liability" and that remaining credit balances are forfeited on termination - a direct financial-loss clause. The service is a reseller of third-party frontier models with no disclosed upstream agreements, so model access and rates can change or disappear without the operator bearing much cost. On data, the Terms say API payloads are temporarily logged for debugging, abuse monitoring and billing, the privacy policy allows retention for trust-and-safety screening, and the free tier is policed by device fingerprinting - reasonable for abuse control but material for anyone considering the platform for private work. The dead primary domain demonstrates the migration risk is real, not hypothetical. Risk ratings are editorial, evidence-based, and never influenced by affiliate relationships.

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.
