One endpoint / many routes

Keep the client. Choose the route.

Router API

A Router key connects supported clients. Model availability depends on credentials, permissions, and protocol support.

curl https://zergrouter.com/v1/responses \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ZERGROUTER_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "model": "modal/deepseek-v4.1-flash", "input": "Say hi" }'

01 / Routing

One endpoint for your tools

Use provider API credentials with scoped Router keys. Choose models, set limits, and configure explicit fallback chains for supported chat requests.

02 / Subscriptions

See your Codex capacity

Compare accounts by remaining weekly quotas, each quota’s reset date, and banked resets. Stale data stays clearly marked. API keys and personal subscriptions are separate access paths.

03 / Usage

Understand what ran

Explore routed usage by model, date, and client. See input, cached input, and output where providers report them. Account-wide Codex history does not invent missing token breakdowns.

DeepSeek 4.1 Flash

New personal accounts can try this model through Modal Shared Endpoints for 14 days after account creation, with a Router key, under a $0.50 UTC-day account-wide trial cap and the 5M-token monthly quota. Other Modal models are not included.

modal/deepseek-v4.1-flash

After the trial, the paid route is metered at $0.30 / 1M input tokens, $0.03 / 1M cached input tokens, and $1.20 / 1M output tokens, up to your monthly usage cap. Trial access also depends on shared platform capacity and the Modal endpoint being available; check your authenticated catalog before connecting a client.

Before your first request

Does a Router key include a model subscription?

No. A Router API key authenticates routed requests; provider credentials and Codex subscriptions remain separate. New personal accounts have only the bounded Modal DeepSeek trial described above.

Can I use DeepSeek with Codex?

Yes. Use a model advertised by /v1/models?capability=codex_responses. The Modal route supports native Responses forwarding; the authenticated catalog is the authority for your available models. Follow the Codex setup guide.

How are requests funded?

Sign-up and Codex account monitoring are free. Eligible new personal accounts receive a bounded, 14-day DeepSeek trial on platform tokens. Beyond the trial, DeepSeek on our tokens requires a $5/month plan, metered usage, and a card on file. Your own provider keys are billed by your provider.

Will Router switch my local Codex account automatically?

No. You choose the account for a local Codex session. Router shows quotas and reset times so you can decide which account to use.

How do I get access?

Continue to ZergAI to check current account access. Existing users can sign in. Access and any billing requirements are confirmed in ZergAI, not inferred from this page.
