Model marketplace FAQ
What is the HiAPI model marketplace?
It is the catalog of every AI model you can call through HiAPI. The page lists image, video, audio, and text generation models from multiple providers, and each one links to a detail page with its capabilities and pricing.
Which model types can I find here?
Image, video, audio, and text generation models. Use the model type and provider filters to narrow the list, or search by model name.
How do I start calling a model?
Sign up and you get a default API key and 200 credits; use that one key for every model in this list. Text models use OpenAI-compatible endpoints; image, video, and audio models use one asynchronous task API. The docs walk you through your first request.
How is model pricing calculated?
Usage-based, with no subscription: images bill per image, videos per second of output, music per song, speech per 1,000 characters, and text models per token. Every model lists its rates up front on its detail page. Tasks are charged when submitted, and the charge is refunded if the task fails.
What are model routes?
Some models are reachable through more than one route, such as the default route or a beta route. Routes are different access lines to the same model and can carry different rates. Open the model detail page and switch the route tab to compare.
Can I try a model before integrating it?
Yes. The HiAPI Playground lets you run generation models in the browser without writing code, so you can check output quality before you integrate. You will find it in the site header.
Where can I find documentation or get help?
The docs at hiapi.ai/docs cover authentication, endpoints, and model parameters. For account or billing questions, contact support@hiapi.ai.
