How it works

Askr works in three steps: Fund, choose your model, and build. Add credit once, pick whichever model fits the task, and pay only for what you use. Crypto in. Intelligence out. The whole path, from signing up to your first result, looks like this:

​

1. Fund

Create an account, then add credit using any crypto: BTC, ETH, SOL or USDT, straight from your wallet. Payments are final, with no chargebacks, and confirmations are fast. Prefer a card? You can also fund your balance with Visa, and Apple Pay and Google Pay are coming soon, so topping up is as easy as any app. Whichever method you choose, the credit lands in the same place. Your balance is held in USDT, a dollar-pegged stablecoin. If you fund with BTC, ETH or SOL, it converts to USDT the moment the payment confirms, so your balance holds a steady dollar value and isn’t exposed to crypto price swings. From that point on, everything you do draws from this one balance.

​

2. Choose your model

Every major model lives in one interface. Instead of a separate subscription for each provider, you pick the model that fits the task in front of you and switch whenever you like. Reach for a frontier model when a job is hard, a cheaper one when it’s simple, and a specialised image, video or audio model when you need it. Because you only pay per request, trying a different model costs nothing extra. There is no plan to upgrade and no commitment to a single lab, so when a better model launches you can use it the same day.

​

3. Build

Now do the work. Chat, write and debug code, generate images, render short videos, and turn text into speech, all from the same balance. Each request costs a small amount, taken from your balance. You see the price before and after, and every request is listed in your history.

• Text costs a tiny amount per token, both in and out.
• Images cost a set price per image, depending on the model.
• Video costs a bit more, based on length.
• Audio is priced per generation.

Cheaper models cost less and the most powerful models cost a little more, and you always choose which to use. There’s no monthly fee, so if you don’t touch Askr for a month, you pay nothing.

​

Credits, explained simply

Think of your balance like money on a prepaid card. You top it up, and each thing you do draws a small amount from it. There is no subscription and no monthly fee, so the balance only moves when you actually run something. Prices are shown in USD, and because your balance is held in USDT, one unit of balance is worth about one dollar. Every model publishes its price up front, so you can see what a request will cost before you run it and exactly what it cost afterwards. Nothing renews on its own, and there is nothing to cancel.

​

Why crypto?

Funding with crypto keeps things private (no card details on file), global (anyone, anywhere can fund a balance), and final (no chargebacks or surprise fees). It also means you can top up straight from a wallet in seconds, without a bank in the middle. Your crypto converts to a stable USDT balance the moment it arrives, so what you hold doesn’t move with the crypto market. You get the openness of crypto funding with the steadiness of a dollar-denominated balance.
