Quickstart

Get up and running with the DeepAILab API in minutes.

Choose your language

1. Get your API key

First, create an API key in your DeepAILab dashboard. You'll need this key to authenticate your API requests.

Set your API key as an environment variable:

export DEEPAILAB_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"

2. Install the SDK

Install the official DeepAILab SDK for your programming language:

Terminal
pip install deepailab

3. Make your first API request

Now you're ready to make your first API request. Here's a simple example that generates a response using the Chat Completions API:

Example.python
from deepailab import DeepAILab

client = DeepAILab()

response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="claude-sonnet-4-6", # default starter model, switch to gpt-5.3-codex, gemini-3-flash, or deepailab-sup as needed
 messages=[
 {"role": "system", "content": "You are a professional coding assistant."},
 {"role": "user", "content": "Write a quicksort implementation in Python"}
 ]
)

print(response.choices[0].message.content)
Starter model recommendation: claude-sonnet-4-6 is a strong default for most workloads. Explore the Models page to find the best fit for your use case.
