Best for

One Vercel key across hundreds of lab models at list price (0% markup), with failover and first-party wiring into Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and Cline.

Skip if

You want Cloudflare’s own GPUs (Workers AI), you meant v0 the vibe builder, or you already like OpenRouter’s catalog UX.

Who it fits

  • One Vercel key across hundreds of lab models at list price (0% markup), with failover and first-party wiring into Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and Cline.
  • Builders who start in the browser without a local IDE setup

Pros

One key, hundreds of models (OpenAI, Anthropic, SpaceXAI, Gemini, OSS) including text, image, and video; tokens at provider list with 0% markup — including BYOK; automatic failover if a provider degrades — same model on another host; native setup for Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cline, and Grok Build; drop-in OpenAI Chat Completions, Responses, and Anthropic Messages APIs.

Cons

Extra hop vs calling a lab directly — you still depend on Vercel routing; credits wallet by default — not a free always-on hobby pool; some spend/security controls sit on higher Vercel plan tiers; not v0 — this is the model gateway, not the vibe builder.
