Own your inference. Make the bill predictable.

Metered APIs price every token; a machine you own prices the month. We build and host it — your OpenAI-compatible key routes only to your hardware.

What you get

A fixed asset, not a meter

Your inference line becomes a machine plus flat hosting. Launch week and quiet week cost the same, and the hardware is yours at the end.

Your key, your machines only

API keys are scoped to your own machines, so requests never touch a shared GPU pool. Capacity, latency, model versions: all yours.

A two-line swap

The gateway is OpenAI-compatible: change the base URL and the key, keep the rest of your code.

python

client = OpenAI(
  base_url="https://b3iq.org/v1/api",
  api_key=os.environ["B3IQ_API_KEY"],
)

OpenAI SDK quickstart

Test-drive your exact SKU

Before you commit, we run your model on the same configuration you'd buy and share the throughput and latency numbers.

The honest math

Self-hosting wins at sustained volume: once steady token spend clears a machine's monthly hosting cost, every marginal token is nearly free. Below that line you're buying control and predictability, not savings — a metered API may still be cheaper. Bring your usage and we'll tell you which side of the line you're on.

Common questions

We're not at volume yet — is this premature?

Possibly, and we'll say so. If spend is small and stable, stay on metered APIs. Owning starts to make sense when usage is sustained, spiky, or growing fast enough that predictability matters more than the marginal token price.

What if we outgrow the machine?

Add GPUs to the same platform, add a second machine under the same key, or use the guaranteed trade-in on the financing page to step up.

Do we pay it all upfront?

No. Rent-to-own with 30% down at 8% interest, or buy outright — terms and the exact numbers are on the financing page.
