ElseLane is a credits-first answer API. One key, one prompt — we classify, route, and fail over across models so your app keeps answering. Prepaid packs, transparent attempts, PII guardrails, prompts not stored. Prompt-only AI API with automatic model failover. A multi-provider LLM router — OpenAI compatible auto model, no marketplace sprawl.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I built ElseLane because shipping an AI feature usually means hard-coding one provider… and hoping it doesn’t die mid-request. ElseLane is a credits-first answer API: • One key + one prompt → we classify, route, and fail over across providers • OpenAI-compatible too (`model: "auto"`) • Prepaid packs ($10 / $25 / $50) — no surprise invoices • Attempt metadata so you see which lane answered • Prompts/answers not stored Verified accounts get starter credits — no card required to try. Happy to answer questions about routing, billing, or dropping this into an existing OpenAI SDK. If the primary fails, take the else lane.
