Aisuite: One Client, Any Model

When I’m in AI Studio mode (rapid prototyping, lots of experiments), I want to spend my time on prompts, evals and breaking the code — not on re-learning yet another SDK.

That’s why I use aisuite for most of my AI projects:

One client API across providers
Switching models is usually just changing a string like openai:gpt-5-mini → minimax:MiniMax-M2.1-lightning or even local ollama
It stays close to the OpenAI-style shape, so it’s easy to adopt

Lately I use quite a bit Minimax for coding tasks because it hits a great ratio of price vs quality.

Tiny example

import aisuite as ai

# export MINIMAX_API_KEY="..."
client = ai.Client()

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="minimax:MiniMax-M2.1-lightning",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Review this diff and suggest improvements."}],
    temperature=0.2,
)

print(response.choices[0].message.content)

If you’re interested, you can also grab the change I needed (Minimax provider support) via my PR: https://github.com/andrewyng/aisuite/pull/269
