# Ship on one key. Switch any time.

> DigitSpace lets a startup use every major AI model through one key, pay only for what it uses, and switch models without rewriting code. Top-ups start at $10, there are no seats or minimums, and keys from your cloud credit programmes run free.

## What a small team gets

- **No lock-in to one lab:** Try Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, Mistral or DeepSeek by changing one string.
- **Lower bills by default:** "auto" sends simple requests to cheap models and keeps the expensive ones for hard work.
- **Your credits, used:** Startup credits on Azure, AWS or Google Cloud work through your own Azure, Bedrock or Vertex keys, with no DigitSpace fee.
- **Fewer outages:** When a provider fails, requests move on without code in your app.

## What it costs to start

|  | Amount |
| --- | --- |
| Sign-up | Free, no card with your own keys |
| Smallest top-up | $10 |
| Fee | 5% on top-ups; nothing on tokens |
| Seats, minimums, contracts | None |

## From zero to a first request

1. **Sign up and create a key.** Your first project and key take a minute.
2. **Change the base URL.** Point your OpenAI or Anthropic SDK at https://api.digitspace.ai/v1.
3. **Send "auto" or a model name.** Watch cost and speed per request in Activity.

## Questions

### Is there a free plan?

Using your own provider keys is free. Credits are pay as you go from $10.

### What if we outgrow it?

Teams, projects, budgets, SSO and contracts are there when you need them, on the same key and API.

### Can we leave easily?

Yes: it's the OpenAI API, so leaving is the same one-line change back.
