    Yes. Call MiniMax M1 80K through MiniMax and Sarvam-30B through Sarvam AI with separate API keys, or through a gateway that already wraps both. Keep prompts in tokens, not characters, when you estimate the invoice. AnotherWrapper templates can swap providers without rewriting auth and billing.

    List rates are the latest published MiniMax API pricing and Sarvam AI API pricing, quoted per million tokens. Official rate sheets: https://anotherwrapper.com/tools/llm-pricing and https://www.sarvam.ai/. Prompt caching, batch APIs, and committed-use discounts can change the invoice.
