Get started with Oxlo.ai

Get started with Oxlo.ai in under 5 minutes.
By the end of this guide, you’ll have sent your first request to an Oxlo-hosted AI model.

1. Create an account

Sign up at:

Once you’re logged in, you’ll land on the dashboard.

2. Generate an API key

• Open the API Keys section in the dashboard
• Click Create API Key
• Copy the key and store it securely

3. Make your first request

Oxlo.ai uses a simple HTTP-based API. Authentication is handled via a Bearer token.

Example: Text generation (curl)

curl https://api.oxlo.ai/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "llama-3.2-3b-instruct",
    "messages": [
      { "role": "user", "content": "Explain edge AI in simple terms." }
    ]
  }'

If everything is set up correctly, you’ll receive a JSON response containing the model output.

Example response (simplified)

{
  "id": "chatcmpl-xyz",
  "model": "llama-3.2-3b-instruct",
  "choices": [
    {
      "message": {
        "role": "assistant",
        "content": "Edge AI refers to running AI models closer to where data is generated..."
      }
    }
  ]
}

Using the Playground (optional)

If you prefer to test without writing code:

1. Open the Playground in the dashboard
2. Select a model
3. Enter a prompt
4. Run the request

The Playground uses the same API under the hood and is a good way to inspect request and response formats.

Now that your first request works, you can:
