Question

Github issue description:
Hi! We’d like to offer this project a free OpenAI-compatible API endpoint that can be used as free optional hosted inference backend.

The endpoint follows the familiar OpenAI API format, so integration should be minimal. The main difference is that responses include a small sponsored message, which helps us cover the inference costs and keep the endpoint free.

Example:

[normal model response]

Sponsored: Advertise here via ChatADy.com

Why this could be useful?

  • Free inference for users trying out the project
  • OpenAI-compatible API, so existing clients require little or no modification
  • No infrastructure or model hosting costs for the project maintainers
  • Can be offered as an optional demo/default provider without replacing existing integrations
  • Gives new users a lower-friction way to get the project running

We’re also happy to implement the integration ourselves and submit a PR, including configuration, documentation, and any UI/provider changes required.

If this sounds useful, we can put together the implementation so maintainers only need to review it.
