Sorted by blended price (input×0.75 + output×0.25) asc. The official channel always shows regardless of rank. Whether a gateway's low price is actually usable can't be verified.

2 more channels offer $0 (Zhipu AI Coding Plan, Z.AI Coding Plan); free tiers usually have rate limits and no SLA, excluded from ranking.

Switch to NanoGPT to save $0.00/mo (0%). The gap is small, so staying on the official channel is fine.
Note: this is a gateway; verify availability and rate limits yourself.
