# KovAPI > KovAPI (formerly NezhaGate) is an OpenAI-compatible AI model gateway: one endpoint and one API key for GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Kimi, GLM and Qwen chat plus image and video generation (Seedance, Veo, Wan, MiniMax H3, Nano Banana, GPT Image). Pay as you go in USD; failed requests are never billed. Base URL: https://kovapi.com/v1. Last updated 2026-10-26. Every price below is read live from the billing table at the moment this file is generated. Official list prices carry the date we checked them; a saving is shown only where we are below the official price. Measured figures come from real customer calls and appear only when the sample is large enough. ## Key facts - API: OpenAI-compatible. POST https://kovapi.com/v1/chat/completions and /v1/responses for chat; /v1/images/generations and /v1/images/edits for images; /v1/videos/generations for video. Images and videos are async jobs: submit, then poll GET /v1/images/jobs/{id} or /v1/videos/jobs/{id}. Claude models are also served on the Anthropic Messages API at https://kovapi.com/anthropic/v1/messages. - Billing: chat per 1M input / output tokens, cache reads at 10% of the input price; images per picture by resolution; video per second of output (Grok Imagine Video 1.5, Seedance 2.5 · Special, Seedance 2.0 · Clip, Veo 3.1 per clip). Failed requests cost nothing; image and video jobs hold credit at submit and refund it in full if they fail. - Top-up: WeChat Pay from CNY 10, USDT and bank card from $5; $1 = 200 credits; credits never expire; unused top-ups are refundable within 7 days ($1.40 fee per refund for top-ups from 2026-10-29, $0.40 before). Larger packs add credit: $50: card/USDT/WeChat Pay +3%; $500: card/USDT +7%; $1,250: card +10%, USDT +12%. - Availability: the public API answered 98.11% of external probes over the last 30 days (one probe every 2 minutes); live per-model status at https://kovapi.com/en/status. - Automatic retries: a request that errors, times out or hits a capacity limit is retried automatically before any output is streamed, and is never billed twice. - Rate limits: no default per-account limit; when a model is at capacity the API answers 429 with Retry-After. Per-key RPM, daily budget, total quota, model and IP allow-lists are self-service. - Data: call logs stay 60 days in the console, their text content is deleted after 30 days, generated images and videos after 15 days, uploaded references after 7 days. Content is never used for training. - Support: support@kovapi.com, Telegram https://t.me/+-erBoH9-AYY4MTM1 and WeChat; Beijing time 10:00-19:00, replies within 1 hour. ## Chat models (live prices, USD per 1M tokens) - [GPT-5.6 Sol](https://kovapi.com/en/model/gpt-5.6-sol): OpenAI. input $1.20 / output $6.00, cache read $0.12. official $4.00 / $20.00 (vendor list price, checked 2026-10-02), save 70%.
