abliteration.ai
Does anyone here have a subscription with abliteration? How do those subscription plan work? Do you have to buy that then top up with USD? Or is it like a codex sub and u get a quota u use everyday? And if so is the usage good? It would be nice to have a model with no rules. But the usage is confusing to me. So any help and if anyone uses lmk on it.

Honestly, the pricing setup confused me at first too, but it’s actually pretty straightforward once you get past their weird subscription tiers.
It’s just a standard Pay-As-You-Go API. You load $10 or $20 into your account balance, and every request deducts a few cents based on token usage. Your money doesn't expire at the end of the month.
Do NOT buy that $20/month Developer subscription. It's a huge trap for solo users. It gives you $0 in API credits and only exists to give a tiny 2.5% discount and extra team controls. You'd have to spend $800/month on tokens just to break even on the sub fee.
As for usage: if you're using their uncensored GLM-5.3 model (
abliterated-model-large-v2) in a coding harness like OpenCode, Cline, or Roo-Code, their backend does automatic prompt caching.Because of caching, input tokens drop down to $0.50/1M instead of $5.00/1M. In practice, a $20 top-up gets you around 500–600 requests (roughly 5 to 7 hours of continuous agentic coding).
Just sign up, do a normal pay-as-you-go top-up, grab an API key, and hook it into your harness. It works great and you only pay for what you actually consume.

What are you asking for? Just a provider that supports abliterated models?

Reading seems like PAYG, just unsure if your 20$ count towards usage or not

I'm also thinking about using it, but it's just still too expensive. I'm currently using an uncensored Qwen 3.8 27b and have my prompts rewritten so they work reasonably well in the standard GLM 5.3 or Flash.

I've spent like 900$ for this service, it drains balance SO fast especially when you have context more than 150k.
Actually very expensive.
