> An independent developer API gateway that provides unified access to GPT, Claude, and Grok models through OpenAI-compatible and Anthropic-compatible endpoints with a single account balance.

luoluoAI is an independent developer API gateway that lets developers connect existing OpenAI or Anthropic SDKs to a single endpoint for accessing GPT, Claude, and Grok models. It is not affiliated with OpenAI, Anthropic, or xAI — compatibility does not imply endorsement. The service is designed for privacy-conscious developers, offering zero data retention (ZDR) on request content and GDPR-ready account controls.

## What It Is

luoluoAI sits between a developer's application and multiple upstream AI providers, acting as a unified routing layer. Instead of managing separate API keys and SDKs for each model provider, developers point their existing OpenAI or Anthropic SDK to `api.luoluocoder.com/v1` and use one account balance across all configured models. The gateway supports three model families (GPT, Claude, Grok) and two compatible protocols (OpenAI-compatible and Anthropic-compatible).

## How the Gateway Works

The core integration pattern requires three steps:
- Create an account and generate an API key in the workspace console
- Override the `baseURL` in your existing SDK to point to `https://api.luoluocoder.com/v1`
- Query `/v1/models` for the live model list and send requests

GPT and Grok models route through the OpenAI-compatible `POST /v1/chat/completions` endpoint. Claude models can use the Anthropic-compatible `POST /v1/messages` endpoint with standard Anthropic headers. Both protocols share the same account balance and API key.

## Privacy and Data Handling

luoluoAI emphasizes two privacy commitments on its homepage:
- **Zero Data Retention (ZDR):** Request content is not retained for service operations. Usage and billing metadata may be kept for account management and support.
- **GDPR-ready:** Clear account controls, purpose-limited processing, and transparent usage information are provided for developers and teams.

## Top-Up Bonus Model

Rather than a traditional subscription, luoluoAI uses a credit top-up system with a bonus structure that scales with payment size. The homepage lists a 1:10 base top-up ratio at the lowest tier, with the bonus increasing at higher payment amounts. Model prices are listed per one million tokens in the Model Plaza. Online payment is currently unavailable; credit is purchased via redeem codes obtained through the Discord community.

## Developer Experience and Compatibility

luoluoAI is designed to minimize integration friction. Developers using the official OpenAI Python or Node.js SDK only need to change the `baseURL` and `apiKey` values — no other code changes are required. The same applies to the Anthropic SDK. The documentation includes working cURL examples, common error codes with recommended actions (401, 402/403, 429, 5xx), and security guidance such as storing keys in environment variables and rotating exposed keys immediately. Model availability can change with upstream capacity, so the docs recommend querying the live `/v1/models` endpoint before deploying fixed model names to production.
