UbeCode
A metered LLM gateway, wire-compatible with the Anthropic Messages API — top up with crypto and pay per token. Use Claude Code with no card or billing account.
Using tools like Claude Code requires a card-based subscription or API billing account, which is often inaccessible or inconvenient outside major markets — a real barrier for developers in crypto-friendly or unbanked/underbanked regions.
The solution
UbeCode is a drop-in proxy that is wire-compatible with Anthropic’s Messages API — any Claude Code client works by swapping two environment variables — backed by a prepaid, crypto-funded credit system. Users top up via XLM or USDT (on Stellar, Tron, or EVM) and are billed per token in real time against that balance, with a full dashboard for keys, usage, deposits, and withdrawals. A hold-then-settle ledger meters usage precisely.
Built on Stellar
A genuine non-speculative utility use case — “pay for AI compute” — with XLM/USDT deposits matched by memo. Stellar’s fast finality and low fees make it a strong deposit rail for topping up credits without a card.
