Terms of Service

Last updated: April 17, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the LLMAI platform, including the website at llmai.dev, the developer console at console.llmai.dev, and the API endpoint at api.llmai.dev (collectively, the "Service").

By creating an account or using the Service in any way, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you are using the Service on behalf of an organisation, you represent that you have authority to bind that organisation to these Terms.

// section 01

Service Description

LLMAI provides an OpenAI-compatible API gateway that proxies requests to multiple upstream AI inference providers (including but not limited to OpenAI, Google, and DeepSeek). Access is billed on a per-token basis, deducted from a prepaid credit balance that you fund in advance. LLMAI does not itself train or host the underlying language models.

Account Registration

You must create an account to use the Service. By registering, you agree to:

  • Provide accurate and complete registration information.
  • Keep your password and API keys confidential.
  • Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.
  • Be solely responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that provide false information or violate these Terms.

// section 03

Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Service to:

  • Generate content that is unlawful, harmful, abusive, defamatory, or that violates the rights of others.
  • Create or distribute malware, spam, or any form of automated abuse.

  • Resell or redistribute LLMAI API access without explicit written authorisation.
  • Violate the acceptable use policies of any upstream AI provider accessed through the Service.
  • Exceed API rate limits or intentionally degrade service quality for other users.
  • Use the Service in any way that violates applicable laws or regulations.

Violation of this section may result in immediate account suspension without refund of any remaining balance.

Billing & Payments

The Service operates on a prepaid credit model. You add funds to your balance, and usage is deducted in real time based on published per-token rates for each model.

  • ·Payments are processed by Stripe. Your payment data is subject to Stripe's terms.
  • ·Credits are non-transferable and have no cash value.
  • ·We do not issue refunds for prepaid balance except where required by applicable consumer protection law.
  • ·If your balance reaches zero, API calls will be rejected until you add more credits.
// section 05

API Keys

API keys are credentials that authorize requests to api.llmai.dev. You are responsible for keeping your API keys confidential.

  • Do not embed API keys in publicly accessible code repositories or client-side applications.
  • Rotate keys immediately if you suspect they have been compromised.
  • You are responsible for all usage and charges incurred under your API keys, regardless of who made the requests.
  • LLMAI will never ask you for your API key via email or chat.

  • ·Scheduled maintenance (announced in advance where possible).
