Best API products of the week May 25, 2026

General Compute

AI models that run on an inference cloud optimized for speed

While GPUs are primarily optimized for AI training, General Compute offers a specialized inference cloud powered by ASICs, which are purpose-built alternatives to traditional Nvidia silicon, engineered exclusively for inference tasks. This innovative infrastructure delivers significantly faster responses, up to 5 times quicker, and provides higher per-user throughput, crucial for latency-sensitive applications such as advanced coding assistants and real-time voice agents. With our OpenAI-compatible API, integrating General Compute into your existing setup is effortless. Simply swap your base URL, and you can continue with your current workflows, running real-time AI on infrastructure that is truly built for the job, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency.

tweet.md

X posts as clean Markdown

tweet.md provides a valuable utility for developers and researchers, expertly converting X posts into pristine, highly readable Markdown format. Say goodbye to the frustrations of scraping complex HTML or dealing with disorganized embeds when feeding content to an AI assistant. Users can effortlessly transform a post by simply swapping 'x.com' with 'tweet.md' in the URL, or by utilizing its robust conversion API. The resulting output is meticulously optimized for large language models, AI agents, extensive research workflows, and efficient note-taking. Each conversion thoughtfully includes crucial details like proper attribution, precise timestamps, canonical links, integrated media, quoted content, and comprehensive thread support, ensuring data integrity and usability.

LLMTest

Use the right LLMs in your apps. Setup fallbacks. Be happy.

LLMTest, powered by 'OpenRouter + Intelligence,' offers developers and 'vibe coders' an automated solution to optimize their AI-powered features. It intelligently helps you select the best large language models, leading to faster performance, reduced costs, and improved output quality, often achieving all three benefits simultaneously. Furthermore, LLMTest automatically implements robust fallbacks when LLM providers encounter issues, such as an overloaded API or non-compliant JSON formatting, ensuring uninterrupted service. All these capabilities are accessible through a single, unified API and MCP functions, allowing you to simply instruct models like Claude or Codex to handle all the optimization and resilience for you, streamlining your AI development process significantly.

Parrot Speech-to-text API

Fast, accurate STT for production-grade voice agents
