Built for cost-sensitive builders

Route efficient models without rebuilding your stack.

Lowertoken sits between your app and selected upstream providers. It handles account keys, prepaid balance, routing notes and usage visibility while your code keeps the OpenAI client shape.

01

Current China model menu

Choose current flagship, fast and coding routes across DeepSeek, Kimi, GLM, Qwen, MiniMax, MiMo, Doubao, Step and Hunyuan families.

02

Transparent data flow

Every customer-facing page points to the same routing policy: gateway checks, selected upstream, provider processing and metadata retention.

03

Prepaid usage control

Prepaid balances, per-key limits and visible usage make it practical for products, agents, evaluation workloads and team projects.

Updated model families

Current callable routes and new provider releases.

Provider release watch ยท October 9, 2026

DeepSeek V4.1 Flash and Qwen 3.8 Max / Flash are official releases under route review. They are not yet enabled as Lowertoken model IDs. Use the live IDs shown in the console for API calls.

Data flow first

Your prompt route should not be a black box.

For enterprise users in Japan, Korea, Europe and North America, the first question is where prompts go. Lowertoken makes that route visible before you send production traffic.
