The Claude alternative that keeps Claude and adds the rest
Claude is one of the best models for writing and reasoning, and Zeplik routes to Anthropic's Claude models directly, including the new Claude Opus 5 and Sonnet 5. The difference is that Zeplik does not stop at one provider: you get OpenAI, Google, xAI, DeepSeek and more in the same chat, plus image, music and video generation, all from a single credit balance. You keep what makes Claude great and lose the single-provider ceiling.

Why people switch to Zeplik
Keep Claude, add the alternatives
For a coding question you might reach for a dedicated code model; for the freshest knowledge, Gemini or Grok; for a quick draft, a fast value-tier model. Zeplik lets you keep Claude for what it is best at and switch to another model in the same thread when the task calls for it.
Media generation Claude does not do
Anthropic's assistant is text and code focused. Zeplik adds image, music and video generation in the same conversation, so a writing session can produce the illustration or the soundtrack without a second tool.
Grounding for the answers that matter
Reasoning is not the same as verification. Zeplik's grounding tools check case citations against a real court database, return dated tax figures, and pull live stock quotes, so factual answers are sourced, not guessed.
One balance across everything
A single Zeplik credit balance covers Claude, every other model, and all media generation. New accounts start free, and credits are 1 credit = $0.10.
Where Claude is the better pick
No tool wins at everything. Here is where Claude is genuinely the stronger choice, so you can decide honestly.
- Claude-first workflows. If your work lives inside Anthropic's own product, its Projects, its artifacts and its specific interface, staying there keeps everything native. Zeplik routes to Claude models but is a separate app with its own surface.
- Purity of a single model. If you have tuned your prompting to one Claude model and never want to think about routing, a single-provider assistant removes that choice entirely. Zeplik gives you the choice, which is only an advantage if you want it.
