This repository provides access to an OpenAI API proxy service, "云雾API" (Yunwu API), targeting developers and users seeking cost-effective and stable access to various large language models. It offers a 1:1 pricing model with OpenAI's official rates, claiming high performance and global direct connectivity without requiring proxies.

How It Works

Yunwu API acts as a middleman, routing requests to OpenAI's official endpoints. This approach allows them to offer a unified interface and potentially better pricing or stability by managing connections and load. They support a wide array of models, including GPT-3.5, GPT-4, GPT-4o, and embedding models, with claims of 99.9% availability and unlimited concurrent requests.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Get API Key: Register and purchase API keys at https://yunwu.ai.
• Usage: Configure various third-party clients (e.g., Lobe Chat, ChatGPT Next Web, Cursor) and programming libraries (Python examples provided for OpenAI, Langchain, DALL-E, etc.).
• Documentation: Extensive configuration guides and Python examples are linked via Apifox.

Highlighted Details

• Supports 227+ models including GPT-3.5, GPT-4, GPT-4o, and embedding models.
• Claims official OpenAI pricing at 0.5 RMB = 1$ Token.
• Offers free API key applications and a free mirror service.
• Provides Python code examples for various use cases like function calling, streaming output, and image recognition with GPT-4o.

Maintenance & Community

The project encourages users to "star" the repository. Links to official website and documentation are provided. No specific community channels (Discord/Slack) or contributor information is highlighted.

Licensing & Compatibility

The repository itself is not explicitly licensed, but it facilitates access to OpenAI's models. Usage of the Yunwu API service is subject to their terms and pricing. Compatibility with commercial or closed-source applications depends on the underlying OpenAI API terms of service.

Limitations & Caveats

This is a proxy service, meaning its reliability and pricing are dependent on the operator's infrastructure and relationship with OpenAI. Users should be aware of potential rate limits or changes imposed by either Yunwu API or OpenAI. The "free mirror service" and "free API KEY" claims require verification of their terms and availability.
