Migration

Migrate from OpenAI to an OpenAI-compatible endpoint

Use the instant migration tool to patch your OpenAI snippets in seconds.

Validate the change with a test vector before routing production traffic.

Quick start

Base URL
Base URL + key swap
- base_url = "PROVIDER_BASE_URL"
- api_key  = "PROVIDER_KEY"
+ base_url = "https://api.abliteration.ai/v1"
+ api_key  = "$ABLIT_KEY"

Service notes

  • Pricing model: Usage-based pricing (~$5 per 1M tokens) billed on total tokens (input + output). See the API pricing page for current plans.
  • Data retention: No prompt/output retention by default. Operational telemetry (token counts, timestamps, error codes) is retained for billing and reliability.
  • Compatibility: OpenAI-style /v1/chat/completions request and response format with a base URL switch.
  • Latency: Depends on model size, prompt length, and load. Streaming reduces time-to-first-token.
  • Throughput: Team plans include priority throughput. Actual throughput varies with demand.
  • Rate limits: Limits vary by plan and load. Handle 429s with backoff and respect any Retry-After header.

Migration checklist

  • Point your client at https://api.abliteration.ai/v1.
  • Replace provider keys with ABLIT_KEY.
  • Swap model ids to "abliterated-model".
  • Run a small prompt before sending production traffic.

Patch existing code

Paste a snippet into the instant migration tool to auto-update base URL, model, and env vars.

Common errors & fixes

  • 401 Unauthorized: Check that your API key is set and sent as a Bearer token.
  • 404 Not Found: Make sure the base URL ends with /v1 and you call /chat/completions.
  • 400 Bad Request: Verify the model id and that messages are an array of { role, content } objects.
  • 429 Rate limit: Back off and retry. Use the Retry-After header for pacing.
