Features Comparison

Heabsy

OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible API
Base URL https://api.heabsy.com/v1. Streaming, tool calling and structured output work as with the original SDKs; vision on supported models.
EEA tier with zero data retention
Models marked EEA only run on GPUs Heabsy operates inside the European Economic Area. Prompts and completions are processed in memory and never written to logs.
Routed catalog of open models
More than 25 open models from DeepSeek, Moonshot, Z.ai, OpenAI, Meta, Google, Qwen, NVIDIA and others, bought from global providers under a European contract and billed by Heabsy.
Long context and prefix caching
Up to 1M tokens of context on several models and 262K on Qwen3.8 27B; cached input is billed at a lower rate.
Per-model processing labels
The catalog at heabsy.com/models shows for each model whether it is processed only in the EEA or may leave it.

xAI

Grok text models
Chat Completions and Responses endpoints for the Grok models, with configurable reasoning and tool calling
Server-side tools
Web Search, X Search, code execution, file and collection search, and remote MCP tools billed per invocation on top of tokens
Imagine and Voice APIs
Image and video generation billed per image or second, and speech-to-speech, speech-to-text and text-to-speech endpoints
Batch API
Asynchronous processing with a discount on selected models, typically completed within 24 hours
Priority Processing
Higher scheduling priority for lower latency at a premium over standard token rates
Prompt caching
Cached prompt tokens are billed at a reduced rate

Pros & Cons

Heabsy

Advantages

OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible API: existing SDKs, Claude Code and Cursor switch by changing the base URL
EEA tier runs on Heabsy's own GPUs inside the EEA with zero data retention; prompts are never logged
EU company (Slovakia) with no US parent; DPA and sub-processor list published
Every model is labelled with where it is processed: EEA only or outside the EEA

Considerations

Most of the catalog is routed through third-party providers and may be processed outside the EEA; only a few models run on Heabsy's own hardware
Accounts are opened on request; there is no free tier
No embeddings endpoint and no GPU rental

xAI

Advantages

First-party access to Grok models
Cached-input rates published per model
Batch and priority tiers for cost or latency trade-offs
Also available through Google Cloud Vertex AI and Microsoft Foundry

Considerations

Only xAI's own models are offered
Long-context requests above the published prompt threshold are billed at a higher rate for the whole request
Server-side tool calls add per-invocation charges on top of tokens

Pricing Options

Heabsy

Pay per token

Per 1M tokens for input, cached input and output, listed per model at heabsy.com/models. No minimum spend, no subscription.

Dedicated deployments

Open models can be brought onto Heabsy's own EEA hardware when the workload justifies a dedicated fleet; priced on request.

xAI

Per token

Input, cached input, and output tokens billed per 1M, with a higher long-context rate above a prompt-size threshold

Batch

Discounted asynchronous processing for selected models

Priority

A premium over standard rates for higher scheduling priority
