Use the AI power you already pay for. One plug, every app.


PRE-RELEASE · BUILT IN THE OPEN
$ npm install @useoutlet/sdk

Early access for apps and users. One email when the vault opens. No spam.

What is Outlet?

Your users already pay for AI, whether that's a ChatGPT plan, a Claude account, or an API balance somewhere. Outlet plugs that account into your app as a scoped, spend-capped key, revocable in one click.

Credentials never touch your servers. We never enter the data path. Your app calls the provider directly, on the user's billing.

One plug. Every layer of AI.

Works with AI labs

Plugged in straight from your users’ own accounts.

How it works

1

Install and register

Add the SDK, register your app, get an app_id.

# free in direct mode
npm install @useoutlet/sdk
2

Add the connect button

Your user clicks once, approves a monthly cap, and Outlet provisions a key scoped to your app only, inside the user's own provider account.

Connect your AI 
import Outlet from "@useoutlet/sdk";

const session = await Outlet.connect({
  appId: "app_yourapp",
  providers: ["openai", "anthropic"],
});
3

Use the SDKs you already use

Nothing else changes. Outlet meters spend in the background and kills the key at the cap, so your app and your users are both protected.

const ai = new OpenAI({ apiKey: session.keys.openai });
// direct to the provider, billed to your user, capped by Outlet

What Outlet never does

No proxying

Prompts and completions never touch our servers. Zero added latency.

No token markup

We never resell usage. Users pay their provider, exactly as before.

No raw keys

Apps get per-app capped keys. Users revoke any app in one click.

No charge to users

Free for end users, forever. Direct mode is free. The vault is the product.

Two ways to plug in

D

Direct

Your user pastes their own API key. It never leaves their device, and the app talks to the provider directly. Free.

V

Vault

Your user connects their account once. Every app they approve gets its own capped App key, revocable in one click. The paid product for developers. Opens soon.

Status

The protocol spec is public and the SDK is open source (MIT). The SDK works today in direct mode: your user brings their own key, validated locally (admin keys refused), same one-line API. When the hosted vault opens, the same code upgrades to scoped, spend-capped, revocable keys. The OpenAI and Anthropic adapters work end to end.
