### Better Model Selection

Access active models including Kimi K2.6, DeepSeek V3, Qwen 3.6 Plus: models not available in Cursor's default lineup.

### Pay per use

Kyma API bills model usage separately from your Cursor plan. Compare rates on the pricing page.

### Automatic fallback

For eligible failures, Kyma API tries another compatible route when available. Your app should still handle errors.
