OSMEXO vs Novita
Both give you many models behind one API. OSMEXO sources each model from several providers, verifies every route against the vendor’s own API, and bills at or below list price. We read Novita’s published prices every day and show the result below, including where they are cheaper.

- At or below each vendor’s list price on every model, most text models 40–70% below
- Routes scored against the vendor’s own API before they serve you
- A one-file script to verify any model with your own vendor key
- Coding-agent readiness tested per model (tool calls, long files)
- Cost, list price and route reported on every response
- Prepaid from $5 by PayPal, Visa or Mastercard; no subscription
- Serverless APIs for open-weight models
- Image and video generation models
- GPU instances alongside the API
Choose Novita if: You want raw GPU instances, or a media model OSMEXO does not carry.
Moving from Novita takes two lines
Keep the OpenAI SDK and your prompts. Change the base URL and key, then use OSMEXO model ids, which follow the vendor/model pattern. Run the verify script on any model before you move traffic.
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(
base_url="https://api.osmexo.com/v1", # was the old gateway's URL
api_key="osm-...", # your OSMEXO key
)
OSMEXO vs Novita, answered
- Is OSMEXO cheaper than Novita?
- On most shared models, yes. We read Novita’s published per-token prices every day, together with OpenRouter, DeepInfra, Together AI. Across the 65 models we can match, OSMEXO bills less than the cheapest of these gateways on 61 and more on 4. Each model page shows the current numbers.
- Do I have to rewrite my Novita integration?
- No, if you use the OpenAI SDK or an OpenAI-compatible client. Change the base URL to https://api.osmexo.com/v1, use your OSMEXO key, and use OSMEXO model ids such as anthropic/claude-sonnet-5. Prompts, streaming and tool calls stay as they are.
- How do I know OSMEXO serves the real model?
- Every route is scored against the vendor’s own API before it serves traffic: tokenizer fingerprint, knowledge cutoff, a hidden-prompt probe and exact-output tasks, 0 to 100, with 85 to pass. You can run the same script yourself with your own vendor key, so you never have to take our word for it.
- When is Novita the better choice?
- You want raw GPU instances, or a media model OSMEXO does not carry. OSMEXO is OpenAI-compatible only and focuses on serving popular models at or below list price through verified routes.
