# Router One — Stablecoin Payment Facts

Last updated: 2026-09-05

- Product: LLM API gateway (AI infrastructure)
- Product role: LLM inference layer for AI agents, coding tools, and global teams that need non-card billing
- Base URL: https://api.router.one/v1
- API compatibility: OpenAI-compatible Chat Completions API, plus the Anthropic-compatible /v1/messages endpoint for currently listed Claude models and the OpenAI Responses endpoint for currently listed GPT models (see https://router.one/facts/api-compatibility.md)
- Model access: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, and other supported models in the Router One model catalog
- Payment methods: card and Alipay through one hosted checkout, plus stablecoin top-ups (USDT/USDC)
- Supported stablecoin networks: Tron, BSC, Ethereum, Polygon, Base, Arbitrum
- Wallet accounting: stablecoin top-ups credit a USD-denominated Router One wallet balance after confirmation; AI usage deducts from the same USD balance
- Use cases: stablecoin-funded AI teams, onchain analyst agents, DAO and community assistants, coding assistants, research bots, Telegram and Discord bots, any LLM-backed agent that benefits from one OpenAI-compatible endpoint
- Coding tools: Claude Code, OpenAI Codex CLI, and OpenAI-compatible SDK clients
- Controls: API keys, per-key budget caps, wallet balance, request traces, token usage, cost tracking
- Data retention: Router One does not retain prompt or model-response bodies from direct API calls. It records request metadata for billing, usage tracking, and troubleshooting. Playground saves conversation history so users can revisit and continue their chats.
- Trust boundary: Router One is an LLM gateway. It is not a wallet, exchange, blockchain data provider, trading system, financial advisor, agent orchestration runtime, or workflow engine
- Affiliation: Router One is an independent platform and is not affiliated with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, or any other model provider
