Standard Compute

An independent, flat-rate LLM inference API for AI coding agents. Standard Compute runs a single OpenAI-compatible (and Anthropic Messages-compatible) inference endpoint that smart-routes each request to the best-fit model across closed frontier and efficient open models, sold as a flat monthly subscription with a stated compute budget rather than per-token billing. Integration is a base-URL swap: point any OpenAI-compatible agent at https://api.stdcmpt.com/v1, use a Bearer key, and set the model to "standardcompute". There are no per-minute 429 walls and no 5-hour or weekly windows; requests run at full speed until the monthly budget is reached, then return HTTP 402 until the period renews.

Standard Compute publishes 8 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Chat API, Completions API, Healthz API, and 5 more. Tagged areas include LLM API, Flat Rate, Subscription, AI Agents, and Inference.

Standard Compute’s developer surface includes documentation, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, changelog, and 19 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/standard-compute: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
