How SiliconFlow billing works with kRouter

SiliconFlow is pay-per-token. You bring your own API key and kRouter routes to it, so you keep your own rate limits and billing relationship. kRouter authenticates it via apikey. 16 models are routable as siliconflow/<model>.

Through kRouter, SiliconFlow serves chat and code completion and image generation, exposed on /v1/images/generations. Requests reach it through the same local OpenAI-compatible endpoint as every other provider, so switching to or from SiliconFlow is a one-line model change in your client rather than a rewrite.

SiliconFlow models & pricing

Prices are USD per 1M tokens, cheapest first. kRouter bills nothing on top; this is the provider's own rate.

SiliconFlow FAQ

Is SiliconFlow free through kRouter?

SiliconFlow is pay-per-token: you bring your own API key and are billed by SiliconFlow at their rates. kRouter adds nothing on top and is free and MIT-licensed.

How do I use SiliconFlow with Claude Code or Cursor?

Connect SiliconFlow in the kRouter dashboard, then point your tool at kRouter's local endpoint (http://localhost:20128/v1) with a kRouter API key. Any OpenAI-compatible client works, and models are addressed as siliconflow/<model>.

Which SiliconFlow models can kRouter route to?

16 models, including DeepSeek V4 Pro, DeepSeek V4 Flash, DeepSeek V3.2. Every one is addressed as siliconflow/<model> from any client.

What happens when SiliconFlow is rate limited?

kRouter detects the limit, parks that account until its real reset time, and fails over to your next connected account or provider — so the request still completes instead of erroring.
