Quick Start - Tokenhot

Tokenhot provides unified access to large-model APIs. With a single API Key, you can use OpenAI-compatible interfaces and switch on demand between models such as GPT, Claude, Gemini, and DeepSeek.

Basic Configuration

Configuration Item	Value
API Base URL	`https://api.tokenhot.ai/v1`
Authentication	Bearer Token（API Key）
Get API Key	Tokenhot Console

Text Chat
Python SDK Example
Install the SDK:

In some environments, if the Python version is too high, installation may fail. It is recommended to use a stable version first, such as 3.10-3.12.

Response Example
Hello! What can I help you with? For example, writing, programming, translation, summarizing materials, or generating API call examples.
Please keep your API Key safe. Do not disclose it to others, and do not commit it directly to public repositories.

Example Response
The API returns a standard OpenAI-compatible JSON structure:

{
  "id": "chat-example",
  "object": "chat.completion",
  "created": 1742448629,
  "model": "gpt-5.4-mini",
  "choices": [
    {
      "index": 0,
      "message": {
        "role": "assistant",
        "content": "Yes. Zhou Shuren is Lu Xun. His original name was Zhou Shuren, and his courtesy name was Yucai. He was an important writer, thinker, and revolutionary in modern Chinese literature."
      },
      "finish_reason": "stop"
    }
  ],
  "usage": {
    "prompt_tokens": 24,
    "completion_tokens": 140,
    "total_tokens": 164
  }
}

Usage Notes

Replace sk-your-tokenhot-api-key in the examples with your own API Key.

If you are using the OpenAI SDK, you usually only need to change base_url and api_key to migrate.

If you need to use protocol versions for Claude, Gemini, or others, refer to the corresponding interface example documentation.
