02 — The Problem

The problem with Claude Code today

API costs $100-200/month

Average developer spends $6/day on Claude API tokens. That adds up fast.

Pro plan runs out in 45 min

Rate limits kill your flow. You hit the cap right when you need it most.

Alternatives are a nightmare

LiteLLM breaks, proxies fail, tool calling doesn't work. Hours wasted debugging.

We solved all three.

03 — How It Works

Up and running in 60 seconds

Three steps. No configuration files. No proxy servers.

1

Sign up

Get your API key in 30 seconds. Free tier included.

2

Set two variables

Add these to your shell and you're done.

3

Code as usual

Claude Code works exactly the same. No changes needed.

terminal

# Point Claude Code to LLM API

$ export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=https://api.llmapi.pro:99

$ export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your-key

# That's it. Start coding.

What developers say

Switched from the official API and saved $150 in the first month. Setup took literally two minutes. Everything just works.

Marcus T.

Full-stack Developer

I was burning through my Pro plan in under an hour. Now I code all day without worrying about limits. The tool support is flawless.

S

Sarah K.

Backend Engineer

Our team of 4 moved to the Team plan. We went from $800/month combined to $99. The failover means we've had zero downtime.

08 — FAQ

FAQ

What kind of service is LLM API?
LLM API is a Claude-compatible API relay service. It exposes an Anthropic-API-compatible endpoint so Claude Code CLI (which supports a configurable backend via the documented ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL environment variable) can route requests through a multi-provider pool with automatic failover. LLM API is independent and not affiliated with Anthropic.
Will my tools work?
Yes. Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Grep, Glob — everything works. LLM API conforms to the Anthropic API tool-calling specification, so Claude Code CLI behaves the same way as with any other compatible backend.
Why use LLM API instead of going direct?
LLM API is a relay service that routes requests across multiple compatible upstream providers, with automatic failover and unified billing. You get higher availability and a single integration point in exchange for a small relay overhead.
Can I switch back to going direct anytime?
Anytime. Just remove the <strong>ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL</strong> environment variable and Claude Code CLI will connect to its default endpoint again. No lock-in, ever.
Is my code safe?
We don't store your code. Requests are proxied in real-time and not logged. Your intellectual property stays yours.
