How to use Obscurify with the OpenAI client

First, create an account. You get a random 16-digit account number: save it, it is the only way to sign in and we can’t show it again.

curl -X POST https://obscurify.ai/create_account \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"accept_tos": true}'

Response:

{"message": "Account created. Save your account number: it is the only way to sign in.",
"account_number": "1234 5678 9012 3456"}

Then get your API key from the account number. The key is computed from your account and never stored, so asking again returns the same key:

curl -X POST https://obscurify.ai/generate_token \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"account_number": "1234 5678 9012 3456"}'

Response:

{"message": "This is your API key. You can get it again from your account number.",
"token": "sk-obs1_AbCd..."}

Add credit with a voucher. Buy one on your account page with crypto or card: your browser blinds it, so we can’t link the payment to your account. To redeem a voucher code over the API:

curl -X POST https://obscurify.ai/vouchers/redeem \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer sk-obs1_AbCd...' \
-d '{"vouchers": ["obv1.2000...."]}'

Signed up with a username and password? Password sign-in and old sk- tokens without obs1 are being retired. Sign in once at obscurify.ai/account to get your account number, then use the key above.

Then use the OpenAI client with your Obscurify URL and API key (Python):

client = OpenAI(
            base_url="https://obscurify.ai/v1",
            api_key="sk-obs1_AbCd...",
        )
        completion = client.chat.completions.create(
            model="anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.5",
            messages=[
                {
                    "role": "system",
                    "content": "You are a poetic assistant, skilled in explaining complex programming concepts with creative flair.",
                },
                {
                    "role": "user",
                    "content": "Compose a poem that explains the concept of recursion in programming.",
                },
            ],
        )

        print(completion.choices[0].message.content)
