Status notes

Public integration, SDK, and group guides were accessible. Model tests are platform-reported; AI Beyond has not tested paid inference or latency. The external voucher shop returned 403, so payment methods remain unverified. No dedicated public status page has been verified.

Pricing mode

The public guide displays default GO / PLUS / PRO multipliers of 0.02 / 0.07 / 0.1 against the platform's own model base billing, not fixed prices per request. Charges depend on model, group, input/output, caching, and request-time rules. Vouchers start at CNY 5; the submitter says they are purchased through the external wzyp.cn shop and redeemed on the website. Payment methods depend on that shop; AI Beyond could not verify its checkout page.

Usually you create an API key in the platform console, then replace the SDK's baseURL, model name, and auth details per the docs. Test streaming, function calling, error codes, and rate limits before launch.

import OpenAI from "openai";

const client = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: process.env.AI_GATEWAY_API_KEY,
  baseURL: "https://api.codexhot.com/v1"
});

const response = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: "gpt-6-luna",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Test one call through an AI gateway." }]
});

• Supported models: OpenAI.
• Capabilities: OpenAI-compatible.
• Documentation completeness: Medium; stability not tested.

• Not an official OpenAI service; official authorization has not been verified. Test small requests first and avoid sensitive data. Model names and platform-reported tests do not establish upstream model identity. Usage records are available in the authenticated dashboard; the submitter also describes dashboard balance checks. These do not establish public balance-query or log-query APIs. The website's guides display QQ support group 1106148284. No dedicated public status page has been verified; recheck live models, availability, pricing, and refund rules before use.
• Third-party relay pricing, models, and availability can change, so re-check them periodically.

Is CodexHot compatible with the OpenAI API?

This entry is marked as supporting the OpenAI-compatible format, but the exact base_url, model names, and parameters still follow the official docs.

Is CodexHot ready for production?

Run a small-traffic load test, rate-limit test, and error-code test first, and confirm the billing rules; keep a backup provider for important workloads.
