FAQ
Questions, answered plainly.
Privacy
01Do you log my prompts?
No. Prompts and outputs are never written to logs, disk or the database; finished videos are the one exception, kept encrypted for an hour. A request leaves only its usage (key, model, tokens or units, and cost), merged into hourly, then daily, then weekly totals.
02Where are the servers?
The database runs in Quebec, on hardware we own or rent and run ourselves. Some models run on GPUs we rent; others go to providers with a no-logs policy. The team works from Quebec and Tennessee.
03Can I use the API anonymously?
Yes. Sign up with only a username, top up with $5 slips that can't be traced back to your payment, and use the site and API over Tor. Your requests reach the models without your IP address, your headers or the ID fields SDKs add.
API & tools
04How do I connect Aider?
Point Aider at the OpenAI-compatible base URL:
export OPENAI_API_BASE=https://api.yourbrand.sh/v1 export OPENAI_API_KEY=$YOURBRAND_KEY aider --model openai/qwen3.8-27b-abliterated
05Do streaming and tool calls work?
Yes, both, in the same format the OpenAI and Anthropic SDKs already expect.
06What are the rate limits?
They're set by concurrent requests, not requests per minute: 2 on pay as you go, 3 on Starter, 5 on Pro and 8 on Max. A request over the limit gets a 429 with a Retry-After header.
Billing
07Can I pay with crypto?
Yes, through Etheroute.io: Bitcoin, Ethereum and its L2s like Base and Arbitrum, Solana, Litecoin, USDC, USDT and more. Card, PayPal and Apple Pay go through our payment processor. Either way, credit comes as $5 slips, and nothing is refunded.
08Does credit expire?
No. Slips never expire, and plan credit is added to your balance like any other credit.
Models
09What will the models refuse?
Nothing that's legal. Requests and outputs are checked only for what the law forbids, such as child sexual abuse material. The models have their blanket refusals taken out, so they'll write dark fiction, explain how an exploit works, and answer medical, legal and drug questions plainly. What closes an account is in the acceptable use policy: content that sexualises minors, threats against real people, malware against systems you don't own, and fraud.
10Which model should I start with?
qwen3.8-27b-abliterated for coding agents, since it has the most reliable tool calls. llama4.5-70b-abliterated for long documents, once it leaves the queue. For search, speech, images or video, pick by task on the models page.
