Migrate from OpenAI to CLōD in 2 Lines of Code
CLōD's API is fully OpenAI-compatible. Change your base URL and API key. Nothing else. Here's how to do it safely.
It Really Is Two Lines
CLōD is 100% OpenAI API compatible. If you're using the OpenAI SDK, here's the full migration:
# Before client = OpenAI(api_key=os.environ['OPENAI_API_KEY']) # After client = OpenAI( base_url='https://api.clod.io/v1', api_key=os.environ['CLOD_API_KEY'] )
That's it. Every other call in your codebase stays identical.
What You Get Immediately
- Access to 50+ models with one key
- Up to 60% cheaper inference via energy-aware routing
- Free tier with 100 requests/day at no cost
- Drop-in compatibility with LangChain, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, and every other OpenAI-compatible library
A Safe Rollout Strategy
If you're migrating a production system, we recommend a staged approach:
- Start with non-critical workloads (batch jobs, dev environments)
- Run CLōD and OpenAI in parallel for 48 hours and compare outputs
- Shift traffic gradually using a feature flag
- Monitor cost and latency dashboards in the CLōD Studio
Getting Your API Key
Head to app.clod.io, sign up for free (no credit card needed), and grab your key from the API Keys tab.
