Making AI Affordable for Everyone
claw.zip is an API proxy that compresses prompts, routes to optimal models, and cuts your AI spend by up to 93%. No config required.
// what is claw.zip
What We Do
Three optimizations that compound to dramatically reduce your AI costs.
API Proxy
claw.zip sits between your app and the Anthropic API. Swap one line in your config and all your requests are automatically optimized.
Prompt Compression
Semantic compression strips redundant tokens while preserving meaning. Same model output, significantly fewer input tokens on your bill.
Smart Routing
Each query is scored by complexity and routed to the cheapest capable model. Opus when you need it, Haiku when you don't.
// our mission
Why We Built This
AI is transformative, but the cost barrier locks out individual developers, startups, and teams in developing economies. We believe everyone should have access to frontier AI models without breaking the bank. claw.zip exists to make that possible — transparently, securely, and without compromising output quality.
// how it works
Under the Hood
A three-step process that happens in milliseconds.
Intercept
Your API request hits claw.zip's edge proxy on Cloudflare Workers. We identify your key and decrypt your upstream credentials in memory.
Optimize
The prompt is compressed using our hybrid engine (algorithmic + smart). The query is scored and routed to the optimal model for its complexity level.
Forward
The optimized request is sent to Anthropic's API. The response streams back to you with headers showing exactly how much you saved.
