How to use Windsurf with any AI model
Windsurf supports OpenAI-compatible providers (BYOK). Add AnyModel's endpoint and key to use GPT, Claude and Gemini in Cascade — pay only for what you run.
Setup
- 1.Create a free account and copy your API key.
- 2.
In Windsurf, add a custom OpenAI-compatible provider with these values:
base_url: https://anymodel.org/v1 api_key: <YOUR_API_KEY> model: claude-sonnet-4-6
Then pick a model from the list — switch models any time by changing the model id.
- 3.Start coding. Switch models any time by changing the model id — same key, same endpoint.

FAQ
No. AnyModel is pay-per-token — you start on free credits (1,000,000 tokens, 6,000,000 if you link Telegram) and then pay only for what you use, no subscription.
All of them — GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Qwen and more, through one endpoint. You switch by changing the model id.
By default we keep request history. For sensitive work, turn on Ghost Mode for a zero-retention key — prompts and responses aren't stored on our side.
