Together AI → QuickSilver Pro

Both APIs speak the OpenAI chat-completions shape, so the move is a base-URL swap. QuickSilver Pro serves the latest DeepSeek V4 wave — V4 Flash for low-cost chat and V4 Pro for premium reasoning — well below Together's own-GPU rates. For the full side-by-side analysis, see /vs/together-ai.

The steps

  1. 1

    Get a QuickSilver Pro API key

    Sign up at quicksilverpro.io/dashboard. Launch bonus: top up between $5 and $50 and we match it 100% — pay $5, get $10; pay $50, get $100.

  2. 2

    Change the base URL

    In your OpenAI SDK init, swap the base_url.

    - base_url="https://api.together.xyz/v1"
    + base_url="https://api.quicksilverpro.io/v1"
  3. 3

    Swap the API key

    Replace your Together token with a QuickSilver Pro key.

    - api_key=os.environ["TOGETHER_API_KEY"],
    + api_key=os.environ["QSP_KEY"],
  4. 4

    Rename model IDs

    Together prefixes model IDs with the originating org. Drop the prefix and use the QuickSilver Pro short name.

  5. 5

    Test your core flows end-to-end

    Run one representative request for each feature you use — chat, streaming, tool / function calling, and json_schema strict mode. Any behavioral difference is a bug — report it.

Common migration pitfalls

Fine-tunes and dedicated endpoints don't move
QuickSilver Pro serves shared open-source models only. If you call Together fine-tuned models or reserved dedicated GPU endpoints, those have no QSP equivalent — keep them on Together and run both SDKs side-by-side.
Minimum top-up is lower, not a blocker
Together's minimum top-up is $25; QuickSilver Pro's is $5. Nothing breaks — the launch bonus also matches your first deposit 100% up to $50.
Model generation may differ
Together serves V4 Pro with a 512K context window. QuickSilver Pro serves V4 Pro with its 1M context and also offers the official V4 Flash 0731 agent build. Re-run evals after switching if your prompts are sensitive to provider or quantization differences.
Rate limits work differently
QuickSilver Pro applies per-key throughput caps (default 600 req/min, 1M tok/min, 8 parallel). For bursty traffic, enable retry-on-429 in your client and request a higher limit if needed.

Migrating from Together AI — FAQ

How much lower is QuickSilver Pro on DeepSeek?
On the same V4 Pro model, QuickSilver Pro is $0.435 / $0.87 per 1M tokens versus Together's current $1.74/$3.48 rate — 80% lower on both input and output. The official V4 Flash 0731 build is $0.112 / $0.224 versus Together's $0.14/$0.28, 20% lower on both legs.
How do I migrate from Together AI?
Change base_url from api.together.xyz/v1 to api.quicksilverpro.io/v1 and swap the API key. Model ID mappings: deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Pro -> deepseek-v4-pro.
When should I stay on Together AI?
If you fine-tune custom models, reserve dedicated GPU endpoints, use Llama or Mistral, or need embeddings — we do not serve those. Image generation we do: Gemini 3 Pro Image and FLUX.2 Pro.
Same OpenAI features?
Yes for chat: streaming, tools, json_schema, usage.cost all work through the official OpenAI SDK.
