Python setup snapshot
Start with the smallest possible chat completion, then move the key to your server-side secret manager before production.
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(
api_key="your-cerebras-key",
base_url="https://api.cerebras.ai/v1"
)
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="llama-3.3-70b",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
)
print(response.choices[0].message.content)Free API and pricing notes
1M tokens/day
No credit card, 1M tokens/day, OpenAI-compatible
Access and production risk
Relay or proxy may be needed
Requires proxy. Extremely fast, ideal for low-latency use cases.
How to set it up
Create or locate your provider API key in the official dashboard.
Install the OpenAI-compatible Python SDK or the provider-supported SDK.
Set the API key in an environment variable instead of hard-coding secrets.
Run a small Cerebras chat completion with Llama 3.3 70B.
Watch free credits, RPM/TPM limits, response shape, and error messages before scaling.
Cerebras production validation table
Use this table before sending real users, scheduled agents, or paid traffic to Cerebras. The goal is to validate source freshness, quota behavior, regional access, and fallback needs instead of trusting a stale free-credit claim.
