FAQ

Is WaveSpeedAI a good Together AI alternative?

If you build with language models and also need images, video, audio or 3D, yes. One API key covers an OpenAI-compatible LLM API with closed and open models plus ready-to-call media endpoints, all pay as you go with nothing to deploy.

Can I keep using the OpenAI SDK?

Yes. Point the OpenAI SDK at https://llm.wavespeed.ai/v1 with your WaveSpeedAI API key and pass the model id. Anthropic-compatible and Responses endpoints are there for tools that expect them.

How do I generate images or video?

POST JSON to https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/<model> with your API key. A prediction id comes back instantly. Poll the result endpoint, or pass a webhook and we call you.

How is it billed?

Pay as you go from one balance. Language models bill per token; media models at the listed price per run on each model page. No monthly fees and no GPU hours.

Can I train custom models?

Yes, for images and video. LoRA trainers cover popular image and video models, and LoRA endpoints run what you trained.

Can I try it for free?

Yes. Eligible new accounts get $1 in free credits to start building, with no credit card needed. Some premium models may not be available with trial credits.

One key for every model.
