Vynaris
OpenAI-compatible gateway that routes each request to a smaller model and returns a cost receipt
Vynaris is an LLM gateway behind an OpenAI-compatible endpoint that picks which model serves each request. Set the model to "auto" and it starts from a frontier model and downgrades when its evals support it.
Every response returns a receipt naming the model that served it, the provider cost and the final charge, exportable as a CSV ledger. Swapping the base URL is the whole integration.
Provider list price plus a 3% routing fee, dropping to 1% past $500/month. No free tier; plans start at $5/month.
Pricing: Usage-based
What is Vynaris?
Vynaris is an OpenAI-compatible gateway that routes each request to the smallest model likely to handle it. Sending model: "auto" starts from a frontier model and downgrades when the router's eval evidence supports the swap; naming a model directly still gets it right-sized. The service is labelled early beta.
How it works
The base URL is https://api.vynaris.com/v1 for OpenAI-shaped clients, or https://api.vynaris.com for the Anthropic SDK. Swapping the base URL is the whole integration; prompts and tool definitions stay as they are. Documented setups cover Claude Code, Cursor, OpenClaw and Pi.
Every response returns a receipt in the headers naming the model that actually served the request, the provider's cost, the Vynaris fee and the final charge. The same data exports as a CSV ledger, which is the part that separates it from a plain proxy: the routing decision is auditable per request rather than taken on trust.
Hosted reduced-refusal models
Alongside the routed providers, Vynaris hosts three of its own models on 128K context, selectable by ID in any OpenAI-compatible request:
- vynaris/qwen3.6-35b-a3b-uncensored โ $1.00 input / $5.00 output per 1M tokens
- vynaris/qwen3.8-27b-uncensored โ $1.00 input / $7.00 output per 1M tokens
- vynaris/deepseek-v4-flash-uncensored โ $2.00 input / $11.00 output per 1M tokens
Vynaris positions these for lawful, authorized red teaming, cyber defense and model evaluation, and publishes prohibited-use terms alongside them. Access requires a $50 balance.
Pricing
Routed requests bill at the provider's list price plus a 3% routing fee, dropping to 1% once monthly usage passes $500. There is no free tier and no trial: the cheapest way to start is the $5/month plan, which converts to API credit, or a $50 prepaid top-up. Credit rolls over and requests stop at a zero balance rather than incurring overages.
Who it is for
Teams running agent workloads where the same prompt does not need a frontier model every time, and who want per-request evidence of what a swap cost or saved. The terms state Vynaris is operated by a sole proprietor based in India, with no uptime SLA on self-serve plans, which is worth weighing for production traffic.
