Build with Vinci.

A minimal quickstart. Full developer documentation arrives in September 2026, after the June 30 launch.

API quickstart

Call the hosted endpoint.

Point any OpenAI-compatible client at try.getsimpledirect.com once vinci-piccolo is live.

curl
curl https://try.getsimpledirect.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SIMPLEDIRECT_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "vinci-piccolo",
    "messages": [{ "role": "user", "content": "Explain recursion in one sentence." }]
  }'
python
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="https://try.getsimpledirect.com/v1",
    api_key=os.environ["SIMPLEDIRECT_KEY"],
)

resp = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="vinci-piccolo",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Explain recursion in one sentence."}],
)
print(resp.choices[0].message.content)

Self-host

Run the open weights.

Download vinci-piccolo from Hugging Face and serve it with vLLM or transformers. Zero Data Retention is automatic — the model runs entirely on your infrastructure.

More lands in September.

RAG integration, SDKs, and the full reference arrive after launch. Source on GitHub.

APIs that guess vs cite

An API that shows its sources.

Most AI APIs

Returns a citation you have to verify yourself.

Vinci API
Citations

Cites the source it used — or returns 'I don't know'.

Most AI APIs

Your prompts may train the model.

Vinci API
Data

Zero Data Retention by default; your payloads aren't kept.

Most AI APIs

Rewrite everything to leave.

Vinci API
Portability

Open weights behind the same API — self-host and keep your code.
