Overview

gpt88.cc is a unified AI API gateway that aggregates multiple model vendors behind one OpenAI-compatible interface.

What it is

gpt88.cc lets developers keep one OpenAI-style integration while switching across multiple upstream model vendors. In most cases, the only required changes are thebase_url and your API key.

The default OpenAI-compatible endpoint is https://api.gpt88.cc. Equivalent regional endpoints are also available for China and overseas routing.

Who it is for

  • Teams building AI products that need a single integration layer.
  • Developers comparing model quality, latency, and cost across vendors.
  • Existing OpenAI SDK users who want more model coverage with minimal code changes.

Core capabilities

  • Chat Completions with streaming, tool use, and multimodal request shapes depending on the model.
  • Model listing through GET /v1/models.
  • Image / audio / video extensions documented in the model navigation and API pages.
  • Unified error handling so client-side retries and debugging stay consistent.

Kimi K3 recommendation

  • Chinese long-context knowledge work: Summarization, research, meeting notes, and structured synthesis.
  • Long-horizon coding: Large-codebase analysis, multi-step fixes, refactoring, and engineering workflows.
  • Multimodal agents: Evaluate visual input, tool calling, and multi-step agent orchestration.
  • Cost control: Treat the 1M-token window as capacity, not a target; benchmark quality, latency, caching, and actual deductions.
