FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Q.How is this different from OpenRouter?

We offer a supported model catalog with KRW billing and a PII masking option. We don't mark up token prices (0%), and a platform fee of 3% applies when you top up credits — cheaper than OpenRouter's payment fee (~5.5%).

Q.How much of my existing OpenAI code do I need to change?

For documented compatible endpoints, set api_key and base_url to use the OpenAI SDK. Check each model’s documentation for supported parameters and response features.

Q.Which models can I use?

We start with the latest models from OpenAI (GPT), Anthropic (Claude), and Google (Gemini), and progressively add xAI (Grok), DeepSeek, Qwen, GLM (z.ai), Mistral, and Korean models (Solar, HyperCLOVA X). Full list →

Q.Does my data leave the country?

The inference location depends on the model — global models (GPT, Claude, Gemini) are processed in the US, Qwen and GLM (z.ai) in Singapore, and DeepSeek in China. Note that even a model from a Korean company may run on overseas inference infrastructure (e.g., Upstage Solar is processed on US infrastructure). The destination country for each model's cross-border transfer is published in a table in Article 5 of the Privacy Policy. In addition, PleumRouter's service operations infrastructure (servers and databases) is currently located overseas (Singapore), so regardless of which model you use, your account and usage records are stored on overseas infrastructure. You can mask sensitive information in advance with per-API-key 'PII masking'.

Q.How do I pay?

You prepay credits (minimum ₩5,000). Card payment (single installment) is supported.

Q.Am I charged for failed calls?

No. We only place an upfront hold on the estimated cost at request time, and if the call fails the hold is released in full. Only successful calls are settled based on actual tokens used.

Q.What happens during a provider outage?

If the call still fails after automatic retries (twice), a 502 is returned and you are not charged.

Q.What if my API key is leaked?

Deactivate it immediately from the dashboard. Setting a monthly budget limit and an allowed-model restriction per key in advance helps limit the damage.

Q.Can I use it for a team or organization?

You can create an Organization, invite members, and use organization-level credits and usage aggregation.
