Before uploading or entering HIPPA, IRB or Export Controlled data, we encourage you to reach out to ai-security@tamu.edu to confirm your compliance with university policy and state and federal law

TAMU AI Chat API

For everyone

Important: Individuals should only use the API feature for learning, experimenting or prototyping. This tool is not meant for production applications.

TAMU AI Chat API is useful for getting started with local AI development, especially when you are using an API to call a custom model you create with TAMUS AI Chat. By leveraging our API access, you can plug directly into modern agentic coding environments and assistants, including:

When you're ready to build and deploy at scale for a wider audience, enterprise AI cloud platforms are available through the Enterprise Compute Environment.

Usage Limits:

Each campus member receives a $10 daily usage allowance that resets at midnight UTC (6 - 7 p.m. Central Time).
Certain proprietary features and advanced responses are currently unsupported. See the official documentation for details.

Requirements:

Create and Test your API Key - You do not need to buy an API key!

AI Gateway

For employees only

Coming Soon - The AI Gateway is currently in testing with customers and will be released later this fall.

The AI Gateway is a high performance, API-first service for accessing the wide range of models available through the AI Framework. It is a powerful, centralized entry point for managing API routing and model access. Connect to a broad, evolving catalog of models, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and open-source VISION Supercomputer models through a single, consistent endpoint.

Key Features:

Supports native compatibility with standard developer tools like Claude Code CLI, GitHub Copilot, and VS Code extensions
Supports reliable throughput under heavy loads, maintaining effective rate limiting and successful automated validation across complex agentic workflows
Broad compatibility with model APIs (e.g. Anthropic's /messages, Open AI's /responses, /chat/completions, and Google's Vertex)
