DeepInfra routes requests to popular open source and frontier models behind a single OpenAI-compatible endpoint and API key. Most OpenAI SDKs work against it by switching the base URL.

Config snippet

​
Supported surfaces

Chat, image generation, and video generation refresh their model catalogs live from https://api.deepinfra.com/v1/openai/models?sort_by=openclaw&filter=with_meta once DEEPINFRA_API_KEY is configured. Live discovery expands the list of selectable models; the default model per surface stays the static value below. Other surfaces use static catalogs until they move onto the same live catalog. DeepInfra also exposes reranking, classification, object-detection, and other native model types. OpenClaw has no provider contract for those categories yet, so this plugin does not register them.

​
Available models

OpenClaw discovers DeepInfra models dynamically once a key is configured. Use /models deepinfra or openclaw models list --provider deepinfra to see the current list. Any model on deepinfra.com works with the deepinfra/ prefix:

Notes

  • Model refs are deepinfra/<provider>/<model> (for example deepinfra/Qwen/Qwen3-Max).
  • Default chat model: deepinfra/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Flash
  • Base URL: https://api.deepinfra.com/v1/openai
  • Video generation uses the OpenAI-compatible async endpoint https://api.deepinfra.com/v1/openai/videos (submit, then poll). A configured baseUrl is honored. openclaw doctor --fix migrates legacy nativeBaseUrl or /v1/inference values on api.deepinfra.com to baseUrl automatically; custom native endpoints are retired with a doctor notice and need a manually configured OpenAI-compatible baseUrl. Video generation fails with an actionable error (before sending any request) while baseUrl still targets the retired /v1/inference surface.
