Claude API
The Claude API is programmatic access to Anthropic's Claude models: Opus, Sonnet and Haiku. Through the API your app can use Claude to write, analyze documents, code and run agents, not just chat on claude.ai.
On Helipod, the Claude API is called through an endpoint compatible with the Anthropic and OpenAI SDKs. You are billed per token in Rupiah from your Helipod balance, so you don't need an international credit card to start.
A separate account, dollar billing and an international credit card.
The same Anthropic models, billed in Rupiah from one balance.
