What is Setapp Al Gateway?

Setapp Al Gateway is a secure, unified proxy that enables your app to access multiple AI models without asking users to manage their own API keys. Switching models or providers is simple and doesn’t require rebuilding your integration.

core
core
Unified API across all providers
One OpenAI-compatible endpoint for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, Meta, Mistral. Switch models by changing a parameter - no new SDK to learn.
core
billing
Billing and auth — zero work on your end
Setapp validates user subscriptions and checks AI credits balances before every request. No payment processor to integrate, no auth system to maintain. Use the user's Setapp token as your credential.
core
performance
Caching, rate limiting, and model routing
Repeated requests are cached automatically. Dynamic routing can direct simple queries to cheaper models, cutting costs without degrading user experience. No infrastructure to configure.
core
marketplace
All-in-one distribution platform
We connect users and developers, handling the parts you’d rather not deal with, including app activation, billing, usage limits, authentication, taxes, and customer support.

Common questions

What exactly is Setapp AI Gateway?
A unified, OpenAI-compatible proxy that lets your macOS or web app access every major LLM through a single endpoint. You never touch API keys, provider contracts, or billing infrastructure — user authentication and usage tracking are handled automatically via Setapp's subscription layer. AI Tokens work across all integrated apps.
Do I need to build billing or auth myself?
No. Setapp validates user subscriptions, checks AI Token balances, and handles all billing through the platform. You use the user's existing Setapp token as the API credential — there's nothing to build or maintain on your end. Payouts are handled automatically through MacPaw Wallet. No, there’s nothing to build or maintain on your end. Setapp validates user subscriptions, checks AI token balances, and handles all billing through the platform. You use the user’s existing Setapp token as the API credential. Payouts are handled automatically through MacPaw Wallet.
How compatible is this with my existing OpenAI integration?
Fully compatible. Setapp AI Gateway provides an OpenAI-compatible API layer, so you can use an OpenAI-style integration while routing requests through Setapp’s gateway instead of a direct provider endpoint.

In most cases, integration only requires updating the base URL, using your Setapp token, and specifying the model with a provider prefix — for example, anthropic/claude-.... The gateway reads the prefix, routes the request to the right provider, and returns the response in a compatible format.This lets you access OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, xAI, and other providers through one unified API with minimal integration changes.
What platforms are supported?
macOS and web apps are fully supported today with ready-to-use SDKs. iOS support is planned.
How do I apply?
