Developer API & PAYG Crypto Billing

Integrate Orin directly into your tools and backend workflows using our drop-in OpenAI-compatible API with Litecoin (LTC) and Monero (XMR) billing.

OpenAI-Compatible Drop-In API

Orin provides a standard /v1/chat/completions endpoint compatible with the official OpenAI Python and Node.js SDKs, LangChain, LlamaIndex, and custom agents. Point your client to https://orin.lstr.uk/v1 and pass your Orin API key.

Python Quickstartpython
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="https://orin.lstr.uk/v1",
    api_key="sk_orin_your_secret_key"
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="orin-alpha",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum computing in simple terms"}],
    stream=True
)

for chunk in response:
    print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content or "", end="")

Pay-As-You-Go Billing (LTC & XMR)

No monthly subscriptions or recurring credit card fees. Fund your developer wallet directly using Litecoin (LTC) or Monero (XMR) via NOWPayments. Once confirmed on the blockchain, your balance is credited automatically and deducted per token consumed.

  • Zero Chargebacks: Crypto payments are final and non-custodial.
  • High Privacy: Monero (XMR) support allows confidential top-ups.
  • Low Network Fees: Litecoin (LTC) confirmations settle in minutes with fractions of a cent in network fees.

Content Policy & Guardrails

Orin's API is designed for creators, researchers, and developers seeking unfiltered, unaligned AI reasoning. We do not enforce moralizing lecture filters. However, we enforce strict zero-tolerance prohibitions against child sexual abuse material (CSAM), fatal chemical/biological weapons synthesis, and ransomware cyberattack payloads to safeguard infrastructure and legal integrity.
