Sakana AI is the one AI service with no Direct Connection control at all - the row never renders, and every request goes through the Big-AGI fast edge servers.
Sakana AI Supported Models ->Sakana AI is the one AI service in Big-AGI with no Direct Connection control at all. The row never renders, so there is nothing to hunt for and nothing you have missed.
Sakana's API permits no browser-direct requests, so every request goes through the Big-AGI fast edge servers.
Direct Connection works only with your API key stored in the browser, and with an AI service that permits direct browser calls (CORS). Where it cannot be used, requests route through the Big-AGI fast edge servers instead - everything still works, within the standard upload size and time limits.
Billing modes and rates are published on the console's own pricing page. Read it before committing, and fund the account before the first answer. Whatever the console offers on your billing mode is the enforceable limit.
Open Models (Ctrl + Shift + M), press More Services if the Setup AI Models wizard opens, then Add -> Sakana AI. The key goes into Sakana AI Key; press Models and the fetched list appears below (add and manage your keys).
Advanced carries an API Host field, for an alternative endpoint of the same API.
