What is XMaxGate?

XMaxGate is a prepaid Claude API gateway for coding. Teams route Claude traffic through one surface with wallet billing, usage summaries, and split user/admin workflows, with pricing up to 80-85% cheaper than standard list on comparable Claude models.

How does billing work?

You fund a wallet balance in cents. Usage debits against that balance as requests complete. Per-model meters can be priced up to 80-85% cheaper than standard list pricing for comparable usage. See the pricing tables for current numbers.

How does pricing compare to going direct to Anthropic?

We publish per-model rates on transparent meters. For coding usage, pricing can be up to 80-85% cheaper than buying the same Claude models at upstream list pricing. Always check the live tables for your exact mix.

Can I keep using my existing SDK?

Yes. Configure the base URL (and API key) to point at XMaxGate. The Claude SDK and any OpenAI-compatible client targeting Claude will continue to work with streaming, tools, and JSON modes behaving as expected.

Who operates admin tasks?

Admin users use the console for approvals, policy, and audit-oriented actions while developers manage keys and day-to-day usage in the user dashboard.
