# Xava Inference > Hold $XINF, earn free AI credits. One OpenAI-compatible API key for text, image, video, audio and embedding models from many providers, at list prices (Elite prices for $XINF and XAVA holders). Every prompt buys back a token you pick: 0.5% of each spend, up to 2% with Elite Reward Status. Prepaid credit backed by USDC in a public reserve (card, or USDC on Solana for 5% less). Agents can also pay per media request with x402 (USDC on Solana), no account needed. Base URL: https://www.zinf.ai/v1 (OpenAI-compatible; send `Authorization: Bearer `). Model ids are `provider/model`, e.g. `openai/gpt-5.4`, `meta/llama-3.1-8b-instruct-fp8`. ## In plain language - What is Xava Inference? One API key for text, image, video, audio and embedding models from many model makers, at the model makers' own list prices. It is OpenAI-compatible: change the base URL and the key. - How is it priced? Everyone pays each model's list price, per unit (per 1M tokens, per image, per second of video). Elite accounts pay the model's Elite price instead: https://www.zinf.ai/models - What is Reward Status? Every account starts as Noob. Hold or stake 1,337 XAVA on Avalanche, or hold 1,337,000 $XINF on Solana, in a wallet linked to your account to reach Elite: Elite prices on every model and a bigger buyback. - How do I pay? Prepaid credit, no subscription: by card at the posted price, or with USDC on Solana and save 5% ($100 of credit costs $105 by card or $100 in USDC). Credit is not redeemable for cash. - What is the buyback token? Every account picks one: $XINF by default, or any eligible Solana token. 0.5% of every spend buys it back (Elite: 2% for $XINF, 1.5% for a custom token), out of our margin, never on top of the price. Buybacks are executed on-chain and published. - What rewards are there? $XINF is paired with USDC. 3% Hold Rewards Tax: every $XINF transfer pays holders in USDC. Our 33% lock earns its share in USDC; an on-chain autobuy share (0-70%, set by a public controller multisig) buys $XINF back into the lock, and the rest becomes AI credits for holders (hold at least 1,337 $XINF on the hourly average). Claim within 30 days; earned and promotional credits expire after 365 days unused, and credits you buy don't expire; burned credits go 50% to XAVA stakers and 50% to $XINF buybacks locked forever. Details: https://www.zinf.ai/rewards - What is the 3% Hold Rewards Tax? 3% of every $XINF transfer, wallet to wallet included, is paid to holders in USDC by the launchpad (StonkFun), automatically, with nothing to claim. - Do you keep my prompts? No. We never store your prompts or replies; we keep billing details only: model, amount and time. Zero data retention end to end on models marked ZDR supported; uploaded references and generated files auto-delete after 24 hours. On a model marked ZDR supported, neither we nor the model provider store your prompts or outputs; on other models the model provider's own retention policy applies. - How long are generated files kept? Images, video and audio are served from this site and deleted 24 hours after creation: every media response carries `expires_at` (unix seconds), and an expired link answers 410 Gone. Download what you want to keep. - Can I give a model my own image, video or audio? Yes: pass an https URL in the model's reference parameter, or upload the file (`POST /v1/uploads`) and pass the upload id. Uploads are charged as "Reference storage" (from $0.001 a file) and deleted 24 hours after upload. - How do coding agents use it? Install the plugin or add the remote MCP server (https://www.zinf.ai/agents), then sign in once in the browser: the agent spends the account balance within the daily cap picked at consent. No wallet or private key is ever needed on the user's machine. - Can agents pay without an account? Only agents that already have a wallet provider with spending policies (e.g. a hosted or custodial agent wallet): image, video and audio can be paid per request in USDC on Solana with x402 (https://www.zinf.ai/docs/x402). ## Pages - [Models and pricing](https://www.zinf.ai/models): every model with its list price and Elite price - [Rewards](https://www.zinf.ai/rewards): AI credits for $XINF holders and USDC for XAVA stakers - [Agents](https://www.zinf.ai/agents): the plugin, MCP server and x402 for AI agents - [Whitepaper](https://www.zinf.ai/whitepaper): the whole design, including risks - [$XINF](https://www.zinf.ai/xinf): the token and the protocol lock ## Docs - [Quickstart](https://www.zinf.ai/docs/quickstart): base URL + key, Python / TypeScript / curl - [API keys](https://www.zinf.ai/docs/api-keys): creating, sending and revoking keys - [OpenAI-compatible API](https://www.zinf.ai/docs/api): chat, images, video, audio, embeddings - [Models & pricing](https://www.zinf.ai/docs/models): ids, units, list price vs Elite price - [Errors & rate limits](https://www.zinf.ai/docs/errors): OpenAI error shape, status codes, retries - [Billing](https://www.zinf.ai/docs/billing): prepaid credit, card and USDC top-ups ## Agents - [MCP server](https://www.zinf.ai/docs/mcp): remote MCP at https://www.zinf.ai/mcp (Streamable HTTP), tools list_models, get_model_pricing, chat, generate_image, generate_video, generate_audio, get_balance, get_usage_summary - [Agent plugins](https://www.zinf.ai/docs/agents): setup for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Kimi Code, Pi, Cline, Windsurf, Claude Desktop and any OpenAI SDK (each install ends with the client's own browser sign-in) - [x402 pay-per-request](https://www.zinf.ai/docs/x402): for agents with a wallet provider that enforces spending policies, pay image / video / audio requests in USDC on Solana without an account ## Machine-readable - [OpenAPI spec](https://www.zinf.ai/openapi.json): the /v1 API - [Model catalog](https://www.zinf.ai/v1/models): every model with its list price and Elite price (JSON, no key needed) - [Full text for LLMs](https://www.zinf.ai/llms-full.txt): these docs expanded, with the model list ## Optional - [Buyback token & Reward Status](https://www.zinf.ai/docs/buyback): how every spend buys back $XINF or a token you choose, and what reaching Elite gives - [Buyback proofs and credit reserves](https://www.zinf.ai/buybacks) - [Rewards](https://www.zinf.ai/rewards): AI credits for $XINF holders and USDC for stakers, claimed weekly in the dashboard (https://www.zinf.ai/dashboard/rewards)
