At this point, are there decent alternatives to Anthropic models for coding that allow third-party usage?

OpenAI have been very generous in their plans in terms of token and what you use it with. Is Codex better or as good as Opus for coding? No. Is it a decent alternative? Very.

Thanks for the reply. Need to try Codex

Kimi is amazing for this. They offer API usage as well iirc if you buy their subscription.

Not regular api usage, just the kimi coding plan, which you can only use in some coding agents

Also the .99c deal has API Access

Yes!

Thanks, will explore Kimi. Haven’t tried it yet
