The same weights cost 1.3x more on deepinfra than on deepinfra. That is what the endpoints table is for.

call it

model=
deepinfra/microsoft/phi-4:flex

this model has no managed policy yet, so call the provider endpoint directly. every id in the endpoints table works the same way

Base url is https://router.requesty.ai/v1 for every id here. One key reaches the whole catalog.

quickstart

openai compatible
main.py
from openai import OpenAI client = OpenAI(    api_key="YOUR_REQUESTY_API_KEY",    base_url="https://router.requesty.ai/v1",) response = client.chat.completions.create(    model="deepinfra/microsoft/phi-4:flex",    messages=[        {"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum computing in one paragraph."},    ],) print(response.choices[0].message.content)

Change the base url, use your Requesty key, set the model to any id in the call pane. Existing OpenAI SDK code needs no other edit, and the same key reaches every other model in the catalog, so switching later is a one-parameter change. Browse all models

notes

reference

Phi-4-reasoning-plus is an enhanced 14B parameter model from Microsoft, fine-tuned from Phi-4 with additional reinforcement learning to boost accuracy on math, science, and code reasoning tasks. It uses the same dense decoder-only transformer architecture as Phi-4, but generates longer, more comprehensive outputs structured into a step-by-step reasoning trace and final answer. While it offers improved benchmark scores over Phi-4-reasoning across tasks like AIME, OmniMath, and HumanEvalPlus, its responses are typically ~50% longer, resulting in higher latency. Designed for English-only applications, it is well-suited for structured reasoning workflows where output quality takes priority over response speed.

questions 5

Which providers serve phi-4?
phi-4 is available from 1 provider through Requesty: DeepInfra. All endpoints share one OpenAI-compatible API and one key, and Requesty fails over between them automatically.
How much does phi-4 cost?
Pricing starts at $0.06 per million input tokens and $0.11 per million output tokens on the cheapest provider. Prices vary by provider and region; the table above shows every endpoint. Requesty charges exactly what the upstream provider charges, with no markup.
Is phi-4 open weights?
Yes. phi-4 is an open-weights model from Microsoft, which is why multiple inference providers can host it. Provider choice affects price, latency, and data-privacy terms, all compared above.
What is the context window of phi-4?
phi-4 supports up to 16K tokens of context. Some providers expose a smaller window; check the per-endpoint context column above.
How do I use phi-4 with the OpenAI SDK?
Install the OpenAI SDK, set base_url to "https://router.requesty.ai/v1", set your API key to your Requesty key, and set the model to "deepinfra/microsoft/phi-4:flex" or any endpoint id from the table above. The quickstart section shows Python, JavaScript and cURL snippets.

route phi-4 through one endpoint

One key for 1 provider on this model and 600+ others. No markup on provider prices, automatic failover, caching built in. Weekly aggregates in the measured pane come from production traffic routed through Requesty, one line per provider on a shared axis. Methodology
