Our Story & Promise

Built by Developers, for Developers. Guided by Absolute Transparency.

We got tired of hidden billing markups, expiring monthly balances, and sudden 5-hour or weekly subscription lockouts. So we built the AI gateway we always wished existed.

A Late-Night Debugging Session That Sparked a Mission

Like thousands of developers worldwide, we were building LLM apps using OpenAI and Claude. But late one night, our production service went dark. The issue wasn't our code—it was a combination of arbitrary third-party proxy markups, sudden 5-hour/weekly subscription limit lockouts, and a top-up balance that had quietly expired at the end of the month.

We asked ourselves a simple question: Why is finding a trustworthy, transparent AI API gateway so difficult? Why should developers be forced into monthly subscription traps or opaque black-box pricing where every token charge feels like a gamble?

That night, Faka was born. We set out to build an infrastructure platform that treats developers with warmth, honesty, and radical transparency. No hidden multipliers, no expiring credits, and no artificial limit lockouts.

How We Engineering & What We Stand For

ENGINEERING ETHOS

Keep It Simple, Stupid (KISS)

We believe in lean, elegant architecture. We don't over-engineer or add unnecessary layers. We build fast, reliable, and straightforward tools.

RADICAL CANDOR

Truth & Auditability as Highest Principles

We measure everything with verifiable data. If something goes wrong on an upstream provider, we show clear diagnostics instead of hiding behind generic error codes.

PRIVACY FIRST

Zero Data Logging & Absolute Privacy

Your prompts and outputs are forwarded in-memory via high-speed SSE streams. We never store, inspect, or sell your proprietary data.

Developer Questions & Transparency Commitments

How do I know there are zero hidden multipliers?

Every request in your console displays the exact input, output, and cache token counts alongside the official base price and your published discount rate. Metering is logged in micro-USD ($0.000001) for complete auditability.

Is the $1 registration credit really free?

Yes! New accounts instantly receive $1 in trial balance with full model access. No credit card or upfront deposit is required.

What happens if an upstream model fails?

Faka Gateway automatically retries backup healthy routes silently. You only pay for successful, completed requests.
