How It Works

CaseDesk helps a software team move from a clear use case to a governed API connection without making CaseDesk the payer for runtime capacity.

Developer Sandbox

1. Create an account.
2. Open the Developer Sandbox from the connection flow.
3. Use the separate test URL and cd_test_... credential from Settings.
4. Confirm that your SDK can authenticate and send a compatible request.

The response is deterministic, so the sandbox proves integration rather than model quality or GPU performance.

Connected Trial

1. Select a runtime already controlled by your organisation or provider.
2. Submit its OpenAI-compatible endpoint, region, data boundary, and model.
3. CaseDesk verifies the endpoint and records that your organisation is the runtime payer.
4. Activate the approved 14-day trial.
5. Route trial traffic only to that verified endpoint.

CaseDesk never provisions a cluster, reserves a GPU, or chooses a different provider as a trial fallback.

Connected Production

After a trial, request commercial approval. The existing verified endpoint is kept in place. Add prepaid CaseDesk credit for the control-plane service while your cloud or model provider bills runtime use directly.
