Claude API pricing. Up to 65% below list.
Claude is Anthropic's family of models. Fable is the top tier, above Opus. Opus is built for long-running agentic coding and knowledge work, Sonnet balances speed and intelligence, and Haiku is the fastest. Zurelay serves each one through Anthropic's Messages API and an OpenAI-compatible endpoint, so Claude Code, the Anthropic SDKs and OpenAI SDK code all run on one key.

Quickstart
Change two lines. Keep your code.
Point the Anthropic SDK or Claude Code at https://api.zurelay.com, or OpenAI SDK code at https://api.zurelay.com/v1, and use your Zurelay key. Streaming, tools and thinking pass through as Anthropic documents them.
Add credit from $10, with no subscription. The quickstart has the rest.
from openai import OpenAIclient = OpenAI( base_url="https://api.zurelay.com/v1", api_key="YOUR_ZURELAY_KEY",)stream = client.chat.completions.create( model="claude-fable-5-1", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Explain quicksort in two sentences."}], stream=True,)for chunk in stream: if chunk.choices: print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content or "", end="")Verified
The Claude you asked for. Checked every day.
Model capacity is often bought ahead, through prepaid credits, committed-spend contracts and volume tiers, and not all of it gets used. Sellers offer it below list price. Zurelay tests each route, pools several per model and sends every request to one that is available and verified.
Before a route serves requests, and every day after, it has to pass identity, dated-knowledge and reasoning checks that catch a different or older model sold under a newer name. Failed attempts move to another route, and you aren’t billed for them. How models are verified.
Live health for every model is on the status page.
How much does the Claude API cost?
On Zurelay, Claude models cost from $0.54 input and $2.70 output per 1M tokens (Claude Haiku 4.5) to $3.50 and $17.50 (Claude Fable 5.1), 46–65% below Anthropic's list prices. There's no subscription or minimum spend: you add prepaid credit from $10 and pay for the tokens you use.
Is it the real Claude?
Yes. Each model is served over several routes run by independent sellers. Every route is tested before it serves requests and every day after, with identity, dated-knowledge and reasoning checks that catch a different or older model sold under the name you asked for. If an answer doesn't look right, send its x-request-id to support and we check the route that served it.
Why is it cheaper than Anthropic's own API?
Sellers offer model capacity they bought ahead, through prepaid credits, committed-spend contracts and volume tiers, below list price. Zurelay tests it, pools several routes per model and sends each request to one that is available and verified. Requests aren't served under Anthropic's own terms for its customers; our Terms explain how they are served.
How do I start calling Claude through Zurelay?
Create a key, then point the Anthropic SDK or Claude Code at https://api.zurelay.com, or OpenAI SDK code at https://api.zurelay.com/v1, with a model ID such as claude-fable-5-1. Code you already have only needs the base URL, the key and the model name changed.
Does Claude Code work with Zurelay?
Yes. Set ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL to https://api.zurelay.com (no /v1) and ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN to your Zurelay key, point the Opus, Sonnet and Haiku aliases at Zurelay model IDs, then run claude. The Claude Code guide in the docs has the full setup.
Can I use the Anthropic SDK?
Yes. Set the SDK's base URL to https://api.zurelay.com and use your Zurelay key. Requests go to POST /v1/messages in Anthropic's own format, with streaming, tools and thinking. OpenAI SDK code works too, at https://api.zurelay.com/v1.
