Get started

Quickstart

Create an account, get a key and send your first request.

1. Create an account in the console: https://console.geniusrelaygpt.com/register
2. Add credits by redeeming a top-up code under Wallet. Billing is prepaid: when credits run out, requests stop. You are never billed in arrears.
3. Open API Keys, create a key and copy it (it starts with sk-). Each key can have its own spending limit and model allowlist.

Base URL

Every endpoint follows the OpenAI format, so any tool that accepts a custom OpenAI base URL works out of the box:

https://api.geniusrelaygpt.com/v1

Your first request

curl https://api.geniusrelaygpt.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "deepseek-v4.1-flash-heretic",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Introduce yourself in one sentence"}]
  }'

Add "stream": true to receive the response as a server-sent event stream, in the same format as OpenAI.

List available models

curl https://api.geniusrelaygpt.com/v1/models -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY"

Errors

Failed requests return { "error": { "message", "code", "request_id" } }. See the Errors page for every code and how to handle it. Include the request_id when you contact support.
