Kimi K3 · regional API access

Use Kimi K3 from Russia through one compatible API

AnyModel exposes Kimi K3 through an OpenAI-compatible endpoint and an AnyModel prepaid balance. It is an independent route backed by connected Kimi Code capacity, not a direct Moonshot account or Kimi subscription.

What the route includes

Compatible API access, not a direct Kimi account

The model, account and billing layers are separate. AnyModel gives your application a compatible endpoint and one balance while the upstream Kimi route remains managed by the service.

Regional access, payment and limits

Requests authenticate with an AnyModel key, so you do not need to create or fund a separate Moonshot account. This does not grant a direct Kimi account or change Moonshot's terms and regional policies.

The checkout shows payment methods currently available to your account. Cards, local transfers, SBP, crypto and settlement currencies depend on the active provider and should never be assumed from a marketing page.

Kimi K3 has a 256K context limit on this route. Long agent sessions can also consume capacity across many sequential requests, so watch both raw context and measured balance usage.
