Claude on OpenGradient
The full Claude line - Fable 5, Opus 4.8, Sonnet 5, Haiku - served through an anonymity layer that strips your identity from every request. No Anthropic account, no $20 subscription: pay per message and switch to any other family mid-conversation.

The usual way has a catch
The official apps tie every conversation to your account, your payment method and your history - and bill you a monthly plan for one vendor's models. The models are excellent; the envelope is the problem.
Model loyalty enforced by billing: comparing labs means stacking $20 subscriptions, so most people never compare at all.
Hosted access normally attaches your account to every prompt. The anonymity layer here splits identity from content - structurally, not by policy.

Here's how OpenGradient is different
The full-size models - not the quantized compromises - served from the studio picker alongside every other family, switchable mid-conversation.
No subscription: each message is priced by the model you use and shown before you send. 1,000 credits = $1.
Encrypted relays and secure enclaves ensure no party - including us - holds both your identity and your prompts.

The anonymity layer
Not a policy promise - a protocol. No single party, including us, ever holds both your identity and your question.
Read the full security architectureMessages are encrypted locally before they leave your browser.
Network relays split who you are from what you're asking. No one sees both.
The model reads your prompt inside attested hardware that never learns who sent it.
When the task calls for a frontier model, switch mid-conversation. Same anonymity layer, same chat, no extra subscription.
