One API for every Sakana model
VernaOne fronts the sellers on this page behind a single interface, so switching model or host is a config change — with automatic fallback if quality or latency regresses.

Newest first, priced or not. A model with no price is a fact about what its sellers publish, not a gap we are hiding.

Frequently asked
How many models does Sakana have?
We track 2 Sakana models across 1 category, 2 of them with a published price. The list is rebuilt from provider APIs, the vendor's own docs and the weights registry rather than maintained by hand, so new releases appear without us writing about them.
Can I buy Sakana models directly from Sakana?
Yes — we hold offerings sold by Sakana itself (as sakana), alongside 1 other hosts. Buying direct is not automatically cheapest: each model page lists every seller with its price and the evidence behind it.
Are Sakana models open weights?
None of the Sakana models we track publish weights, so they can only be used through an API.
