Inkling Small API
Inkling Small is a text model from Inkling, live on Corent. Answers in the OpenAI-compatible chat format.
Two ways to run it
Name Inkling Small, or let Corent choose
You pick
POST /v1/chat/completions{ "model": "corent-inkling-small", "messages": [{ "role": "user", "content": "Write a haiku about shipping fast." }]}
Direct access runs Inkling Small and no other model. No substitution, you pay its price plus Corent’s fee, and the receipt names the model you pinned.
The router picks
POST /v1/chat/completions{ "model": "corent", "messages": [{ "role": "user", "content": "Write a haiku about shipping fast." }]}
Leave the model out and Corent reads the prompt, weighs every live text model on quality and price, and picks Inkling Small whenever it is the best fit. The receipt shows the exact charge.

FAQ
Common questions
Does Inkling Small have an API?
Yes. Inkling Small is served through the Corent API on POST /v1/chat/completions. Pin the exact name corent-inkling-small and you get that model or nothing: no substitution, and the receipt names the model you pinned. One Corent key covers it alongside every other model in the catalog.
How much does Inkling Small cost on Corent?
You pay the model’s price plus Corent’s fee, and the exact charge comes back on every response. Text is billed per token, and a typical reply on Corent costs $0.03 to $0.10, depending on the model and the length. Typical prices for every kind of result are on the pricing page.
Do I have to pick Inkling Small?
No. Leave the model out and Corent reads each prompt, picks the cheapest live model that does the job well (or the top one with "quality": "best"), and switches models if one fails. Pinning corent-inkling-small is for when you want exactly this model on every request.
