Vinci
Open-weight, OpenAI-compatible AI from SimpleDirect — built so you actually own your AI: zero data retention by default, Canadian residency, and available as a chat app, an HTTP API, and inside your coding agent.
Start here
- Getting started — sign up, get a key, make your first request.
- API overview — base URL, authentication, models, limits.
- Chat Completions — the endpoint reference.
- Use Vinci in any tool — Pi, OpenCode, Aider, Cline, Continue…
- Privacy & ZDR — what we store (almost nothing), and where (Canada).
Why Vinci
- Zero Data Retention. We don’t keep your prompts or completions on our servers.
- Yours to own. Open weights — run hosted, or fully local.
- Canadian residency. Inference runs in Montreal (
ca-central-1), never US infra. - One character, every surface. The Vinci voice is applied server-side on every request and travels with you across the app, the API, and the CLI.
