# NetIntel GPT-4.1 Chat Completions Gateway

> NetIntel GPT-4.1 Chat Completions Gateway is a paid API for AI agents from netintel.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.09/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Proxies OpenAI GPT-4.1 chat completions via a pay-per-call x402 endpoint, requiring no OpenAI account or API key — just pay $0.09 USDC per request.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability netintel-gpt-4-1-chat-completions-gateway-3ea338e0 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Use GPT-4.1 to write me a concise product description for a noise-cancelling travel headphone — I don't have an OpenAI API key, so use the pay-per-call gateway that charges $0.09 per request in USDC.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need GPT-4.1 chat completions without setting up an OpenAI account or managing API keys — ideal for agents, automations, or one-off tasks that prefer a pay-per-call USDC micropayment model. Also preferable when your pipeline needs to avoid per-user credential management and can tolerate capped input/output token limits.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance causing a 402 Payment Required response
- Input token count exceeding the capped limit resulting in a 400 error
- Malformed messages array or missing required fields returning a 422 validation error
- Upstream OpenAI API outage causing a 502 or 503 gateway error
- Rate limiting if too many concurrent requests are sent

## How this service works

Call OpenAI's gpt-4.1 via a single pay-per-call x402 endpoint — no OpenAI account or API key needed, pay $0.09 per request in USDC. Standard OpenAI chat.completions request/response shape, capped input and output. Search terms: OpenAI, gpt-4.1, chat completion, LLM, no API key.

## Output

Returns a standard OpenAI chat.completions response object containing the assistant's generated message, finish reason, and token usage counts — identical in shape to the OpenAI API response, with capped input and output token limits.
