User Guide

This guide covers everything you need to use CleverThis as an end user — from creating an account and making your first API call to deploying custom Actor endpoints and managing your billing.

CleverThis is designed to feel familiar if you have used the OpenAI API before. Your existing SDKs and curl scripts work out of the box — just swap the base URL and add a ct_live_ key. On top of that, CleverThis adds Namespaces, Packages, and Actors that let you build and publish versioned AI pipelines as first-class API endpoints.
