You are moving fast on not much runway. Qai gives you one API for text, image, and video with pay-as-you-go billing, no minimums, and usage you can watch per key. Build the feature, watch the meter, sleep at night.
One viral day or one runaway loop and you are staring at a five-figure invoice you never saw coming.
Minimums, seat fees, and annual commitments built for companies with a finance team, not a founder with a Stripe account.
Text here, images there, video somewhere else - each with its own bill, its own SDK, and its own lock-in.
Procurement cycles and sales calls are time you do not have. You want a key and a doc, today.
The AI features startups actually ship - all on one key, all metered per call.
The chatbot, the summariser, the smart search that anchors your pitch deck. Wire it up with the OpenAI SDK you already know and ship this week.

Landing pages, blog posts, launch emails, app-store copy - the marketing you cannot afford to outsource yet, generated and edited in-house.
qai-pro, then run the output through /v1/utilities/humanize-text.Triage support, tag leads, summarise calls, draft replies - the busywork stealing your build time, handed to a cheap model on a cron.
qai-flash for classify and tag; qai-pro for drafting.Launch graphics, social creative, and demo b-roll, hosted on our CDN so you do not even stand up a storage bucket.
qai-imagine-turbo for stills; qai-motion for clips.hostMedia: true > embed the URLThese are the controls that keep the bill predictable once you are building.
No seat fees, no annual commitment, no floor. A slow month costs you next to nothing - you pay per call and nothing else.
Give each feature its own key and watch it in the dashboard. If a deploy goes wrong, disable that key and it stops on the next request.
The qai-hello-world tier is free - 100 calls per key per day, no card - so you build and demo the whole thing before you spend a dollar.
Your default while iterating - cheap enough to call constantly without watching the meter.
The balanced tier for anything user-facing once the feature is real.
Launch graphics and social creative at batch speed, hosted for you.
The free sandbox - prototype and demo before you put a card on file.
Start free, wire up one feature, and move to a paid model when you are ready to scale. No sales call required.
