    api_key=os.environ["API_KEY"],
    base_url="https://integrate.api.nvidia.com/v1",
)

resp = client.chat.completions.create(

print(resp.choices[0].message.content)

Common questions

Where can I use Kimi for free via API?

5 providers in our 13 Nov 2026, 13:36 UTC snapshot name a Kimi model: NVIDIA Build / NIM, Tencent EdgeOne Makers Models, SenseNova Token Plan, Mervex, Mango Inference. We only list a provider here when that name already appears in our data. Catalogues change, so confirm on the official page before you rely on an entry.

Which of these Kimi providers are OpenAI compatible?

5 of the 5 active entries are marked OpenAI compatible in our data: NVIDIA Build / NIM, Tencent EdgeOne Makers Models, SenseNova Token Plan, Mervex, Mango Inference. The others are marked no, partial, or Not published — see the table on this page.

Do I need a credit card?

5 active entries in this list say no card is required: NVIDIA Build / NIM, Tencent EdgeOne Makers Models, SenseNova Token Plan, Mervex, Mango Inference. Others may ask for a card, a top-up, or do not publish this. Confirm on the sign-up page.

Why do some fields say Not published?

The provider has not published that figure on their public pages, or we could not find it. We never invent quotas, prices or endpoints.

Is this every site that hosts Kimi?

No. This page only includes providers that already name Kimi in our data file. A gateway may offer the model without that name appearing in our notes, allowance or limits, and we do not guess those catalogues.
