Show HN: WavexAI – Unlimited tokens for a fixed cost

I have never understood the per token pricing model, so I built WavexAI to see what I was missing. Maybe I'll find something at scale, but turns out you can provide fixed cost inference without the fear of running out of tokens.

Would love feedback, and testers on the site!

What's your cost model / pricing based on here? If you're going to provide $20/month for unlimited APi calls, I can see this getting abused very reasily.

Pricing is largely based on how many users we think we can fit per our baseline modset, and how much the cost of that modset is determines where we can work back from in price. From there, we would scale on a per modset basis.

It may not turn out to be a perfect science, but in the name of shipping something and getting feedback, it's out there

How does it work and how are you getting more people to discover it

It is very new (launched a couple days ago), so still trying to figure out how to get it out there. I'm a software nerd not a marketing genius unfortunately.

As for how it works, its a pretty standard inference provider, where we offer a chatbot and an API, at unlimited usage for a fixed cost. Since its very new, we're still wondering if there's something we're missing as for why fixed cost AI is not the norm.

Hoping it is similar to the music industry, where you once had to pay $1.99 to download a song, and now you can stream all you want for $12.99. We want to begin that new trend.
