AI Relay Health Report Card

Check stability and authenticity before paying a third-party AI relay long-term

Problem

Users who can't buy or pay for official AI models turn to API relay resellers, then worry the site will vanish, that "4K" is just upscaled, or that new versions never arrive. They ask around for trustworthy relays and get only scattered word of mouth.

Solution

Continuously probe registered relays with fixed prompts to measure uptime, time-to-first-byte, whether 4K is native, and how fast new versions arrive; publish a public scorecard with change alerts. Users can submit sites or subscribe to "notify me if this relay dies."

Users

Indie developers, cross-border sellers and designers who depend on third-party API relays

MVP

Index 20–30 common relays; probe text and image endpoints twice daily; detect native 4K via pixel fingerprint; public scorecard page; email/Telegram alert on outage

Revenue

Claim-and-verify fee from relay operators plus premium alert subscription; free scorecard drives traffic

Why now

Model versions churn fast and relay quality varies wildly, while probe scripts take one person a week; no neutral third party does continuous testing today
