Octen Model Gateway
Every frontier model, plus fast web search, in one API call
We built the fastest search on Earth, and then many devs asked if it could be AI-enabled search through our API too. Model Gateway is our answer, so you can use one key for GPT, Claude, Gemini, and more. And when you add one tool call line to the request, the model searches the live web, inside the same request, on an index that updates within 5 minutes of publication. Use one API key, get blazing fast AI search, and, for a limited time, we are giving 15% of your Model Gateway spend back!
In July we came out of stealth and published our search benchmarks with the eval code in public so anyone could challenge the numbers. A lot of you did, which was invaluable for us!
But the message that kept popping up: "Can I just call the model through this too?"
We were slow to say yes. You see, gateways are a commodity and routing a request behind one key is a billing problem, not a hard engineering problem, and we're a search company. And we didn't want to spend our engineering on it.
But these aren't two problems. There's one problem seen from two angles: your model and your data live in separate places, and the only thing connecting them is an agentic loop you wrote, you debug, and you own forever.
We'd spent many months optimizing one leg of that journey and left everything around it alone. Turns out it doesn't matter how fast the search is if the model has to go across the network to reach it.
So now with one Octen key, you have many frontier models, and simply have to add "tools": [{"type": "octen_search"}] as the entire search integration. We run it on our side and hand the model the results before anything returns to you.
One more thing: right now, 15% of your Model Gateway spend comes back to your monthly balance. Sign up and get $5 of credit! Comment and let us know what you think as we'll be here to answer your questions!
