Fikra API is a hosted gateway. It routes requests to third-party model providers, adds an account, pricing, payment and audit layer, and leads with agents that can open and fund an account for a person. Humans and agent-native rails use the same surface.
Fikra API is built around agents for humans. An agent can open a provisional account for a person, fund it by card or mobile money, run the call, and hand the account over with a claim link. A human can also sign up directly, get $0.50 in credit, and use the same account with a normal API key.
We pin the model builds we serve, publish the prices, and disclose the upstream provider on each model page. The website, the API and the machine-readable files are supposed to agree. When they do not, that is a bug we want to hear about.

Self-taught AI/ML engineer. Building the inference account he wanted for agent workloads: published prices, predictable spend, and a surface an agent can operate end to end.

Prices, limits, providers and uptime are data, not slogans. The page links to the source.
A page can describe a roadmap, but it must label it as a roadmap. Live claims require code, a test, or a public endpoint.
OpenAI-compatible API, stable model IDs, no new subscription for new accounts, and a prepaid wallet you can stop using at any time.
