Quickstart — API key

The Tokligence API is drop-in compatible with the OpenAI Chat Completions format. Point any OpenAI client at our base URL and use your key.

Base URL:  https://llm-api.tokligence.ai/v1
Auth:      Authorization: Bearer <your-api-key>
  1. Create an account and get an API key from the dashboard.
  2. Set the base URL and key in your OpenAI client — nothing else changes.

Python (OpenAI SDK)​

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="tk-...",
    base_url="https://llm-api.tokligence.ai/v1",
)

resp = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="deepseek-v4-flash",          # see /models for the full list
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
)
print(resp.choices[0].message.content)
