Payments API
Everything a merchant needs to accept Bitcoin over Lightning — from a single invoice to a full checkout flow with webhooks and refunds.
Creator
Everything a creator needs to get paid directly — bio pages, tipping, recurring supporters and gated content, all settling to your own wallet.
AI GatewayNew
Every major model — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek — through one OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Switch models by changing one string, pay per query in sats.
AI ToolsNew
Beyond chat: image & video generation, voice in 600+ languages, translation and OCR — every call quoted in sats upfront and itemized in your history.
Address Marketplace
One search across every lightning address provider. Claim free on zapapi.app or buy a premium domain — paid directly to the provider over Lightning.
App Directory
