Core Concepts ​

This chapter explains the key concepts that matter most to regular users of the Site URL, helping you better understand the configuration items and usage statistics shown in the console.

Multi-LLM API Gateway ​

The core positioning of the Site URL is a high-quality Multi-LLM API Gateway:

  • Access multiple model providers through one unified domain. See the “API Base URL” section in the “Overview” chapter.
  • Use unified authentication, billing, and usage reporting.
  • Reduce repeated configuration and adaptation work by abstracting away vendor-specific differences.

Note: a unified domain does not mean a single key can access all vendors at the same time. See “API keys, AI vendors, and groups” below.

Account and organization ​

  • Account: your personal account on the Site URL, used to sign in to the console, manage keys, and view billing information.
  • Organization / team (if available):
    • Used for multi-user collaboration and centralized management of keys, usage, and billing.
    • Typically used by enterprise or group customers.

API keys, AI vendors, and groups ​

  • On the Site URL, one key corresponds to one group under one AI vendor. For example: OpenAI → GPT Standard.
  • If you need to use other vendors such as Anthropic or Gemini, create separate keys.
  • A single vendor may provide multiple groups. Different groups represent different channel characteristics and rate multipliers.

Usage and billing ​

  • Every request sent through the API Base URL is recorded. See the “API Base URL” section in the “Overview” chapter for the actual endpoints.
  • The console provides usage statistics and billing views for:
    • request counts / tokens / estimated cost;
    • usage distribution across different API keys.
  • CSV export is available on the Usage page.
  • Input, output, and cache token data are returned by the underlying vendor interfaces.
  • Token prices follow the official vendor pricing.

Individual users vs. group / enterprise users ​

  • Individual users typically focus on reliable access, top-up methods, and cost control.
  • Group / enterprise users usually care about those items as well as team management, cost allocation, service levels, and after-sales support.

The following chapters walk through real usage scenarios for both types of users and explain how to use the Site URL effectively with console examples and configuration guidance.
