Use Claude 3.5 Sonnet from the API

OpenAI-compatible. Same Faceb.ai tokens cover chat and API. Drop-in replacement for the OpenAI SDK.

curl https://api.faceb.ai/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-faceb-YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "anthropic/claude-3.5-sonnet",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
    "stream": true
  }'
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="https://api.faceb.ai/v1",
    api_key="sk-faceb-YOUR_KEY",
)

stream = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="anthropic/claude-3.5-sonnet",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
    stream=True,
)
for chunk in stream:
    print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content or "", end="", flush=True)
import OpenAI from "openai";

const client = new OpenAI({
  baseURL: "https://api.faceb.ai/v1",
  apiKey: "sk-faceb-YOUR_KEY",
});

const stream = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: "anthropic/claude-3.5-sonnet",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello!" }],
  stream: true,
});
for await (const chunk of stream) {
  process.stdout.write(chunk.choices[0]?.delta?.content || "");
}

Also works for image generation (image-output model slugs return image_url content parts) and web search (add "web_search": true to the payload). Same endpoint, same wallet.

Frequently asked — Claude 3.5 Sonnet

What is Claude 3.5 Sonnet?

Claude 3.5 Sonnet is Anthropic's mid-size flagship — released June 2024. It replaced Claude 3 Opus as their best everyday model and powers most of the coding-tooling market (Cursor, Windsurf, many agents).

Is Claude 3.5 Sonnet better than GPT-4o for code?

Most developers think so — Sonnet has been the default coding model on Cursor and Windsurf for months. It's especially strong on refactors and understanding existing codebases.

Can I chat with Claude without a Claude.ai subscription?

Yes. Faceb.ai gives you Sonnet alongside GPT-4o, Gemini and 100+ more on one $14.99/month plan — no Anthropic sub required.

Does Claude 3.5 Sonnet support image input?

Yes, natively. Drop a screenshot and it reads it.

What's the context window?

200,000 tokens — larger than GPT-4o's 128k. Enough to paste entire medium-size codebases.

How much does a Sonnet message cost in tokens?

Around 3,750–7,500 tokens for a typical exchange. 15M Pro tokens buy roughly 2,000–4,000 Sonnet messages.

Does Claude hallucinate less than GPT-4o?

Anecdotally yes — Anthropic's training emphasises calibrated uncertainty. It's more willing to say "I don't know" or flag a guess.

Is there a Claude Opus or Haiku option too?

Yes — the picker has Claude 3 Haiku (fastest/cheapest Anthropic) and Claude 3 Opus (larger, pricier). Switch per message.

Can I call Claude 3.5 Sonnet from the API?

Yes. Your API keys work with any model slug — use anthropic/claude-3.5-sonnet with the OpenAI SDK pointed at https://api.faceb.ai/v1.

What's Sonnet's knowledge cutoff?

Roughly April 2024 for the current version — it gets refreshed occasionally.

Does Claude 3.5 Sonnet do tool-use / function calling?

Yes — Anthropic's tool-use API is supported. Your client library just needs to pass the tools list in the request.

Is my prompt private when I use Claude on Faceb.ai?

We don't store prompts beyond your chat history, and we don't train on them. Anthropic's policy prohibits training on API traffic.

Or try a different model

Your Faceb.ai tokens work for every model — switch per message, no extra subscriptions.

One subscription covers every frontier model — switch between them per message. No extra API keys, no extra bills.
