Dedicated is Hostlinku’s third service mode. Unlike Performance and Low-Cost, which forward requests to upstream partners, the Dedicated model runs on Hostlinku’s own infrastructure.

​
Available Models

Nine models, three families: The -turbo and -hyper variants are faster/larger configurations of the base model. Models not listed here are not available in Dedicated mode—use Performance or Low-Cost instead.

​
Endpoints and Authentication

The base URL does not change between modes. All three API dialects are supported: Simply point the app to the Hostlinku base URL and use the Dedicated mode API key—there are no additional parameters for selecting the mode.

​
Price

Selling price = base price of the model × Dedicated mode multiplier, billed per 1M tokens (1 = $1). The figures per model are listed in the Model Catalog — select the Dedicated tab to view the prices applicable to your key. Example: glm-5-3 currently costs 1.21 inputs and 3.80 output per 1M token.

​
Prompt Caching

The Dedicated model uses the provider’s auto-cache. You don’t need to send cache_control: send the same prefix within the cache’s lifetime, and the tokens read from the cache will appear as cached_tokens (/v1/chat/completions) or cache_read_input_tokens (/v1/messages). See Save Money with Prompt Caching for instructions on how to view the metrics in the console.

​
Limitations

  • There are only nine models in the table above; there is no automatic fallback to another mode.
  • The -chat variant (for coding/agentic use only) is not available for sale in the public catalog.
  • Tool calling, streaming, and stream_options.include_usage are supported. Vendor-specific features (e.g., web search) depends on the model and is not guaranteed to be available.
