- Faster deployment
- Transparent pricing
Cost Comparison
GPT-5 vs Wisdom-Gate Pricing
| Model | OpenRouter Input / Output per 1M tokens | Wisdom-Gate Input / Output per 1M tokens | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| GPT-5 | $1.25 / $10.00 | $1.00 / $8.00 | ~20% |
| Claude Sonnet 4 | $3.00 / $15.00 | $2.40 / $12.00 | ~20% |
Claude Sonnet 4 Savings
Same performance but at a reduced price — making it a strong alternative if your workload doesn’t mandate GPT-5.
How to Switch in One Line
Switching to Wisdom-Gate requires changing only the base url for your API calls.
Endpoint Swap Code Snippet
Update your GPT-5 API call from your current provider to:
curl --location --request POST 'https://wisdom-gate.juheapi.com/v1/chat/completions' \
--header 'Authorization: YOUR_API_KEY' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Accept: */*' \
--header 'Host: wisdom-gate.juheapi.com' \
--header 'Connection: keep-alive' \
--data-raw '{
"model":"wisdom-ai-claude-sonnet-4",
"messages": [
{
"role": "user",
"content": "Hello, how can you help me today?"
}
]
}'
Replace your old endpoint with the Wisdom-Gate one and keep all other request parameters as is.
Minimal Downtime Strategy
- Test the new endpoint in staging
- Swap in production after validation
- Roll back instantly by reverting to old endpoint if needed
