PPQ (PayPerQ)

Pay-per-use AI API. OpenAI-compatible. No subscription—just pay with Lightning.

Quick Start

1. Create Account

curl -X POST https://api.ppq.ai/accounts/create
# Returns: { "credit_id": "...", "api_key": "sk-..." }

2. Top Up

# Create invoice
curl -X POST https://api.ppq.ai/topup/create/btc-lightning \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"amount": 1000, "currency": "SATS"}'

# Pay the lightning_invoice, then verify:
curl -X POST https://api.ppq.ai/credits/balance \
  -d '{"credit_id":"CREDIT_ID"}'

3. Configure OpenClaw

Save credentials:

mkdir -p ~/.ppq
echo '{"credit_id":"...","api_key":"sk-..."}' > ~/.ppq/credentials.json

Edit ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:

{
  "agents": { "defaults": { "model": { "primary": "ppq/moonshotai/kimi-k2.5" } } },
  "models": {
    "providers": {
      "ppq": {
        "baseUrl": "https://api.ppq.ai",
        "apiKey": "${PPQ_API_KEY}",
        "api": "openai-completions"
      }
    }
  },
  "env": { "PPQ_API_KEY": "sk-..." }
}

Set default and restart:

openclaw models set ppq/moonshotai/kimi-k2.5
openclaw gateway restart
