OpenRelay is in early access, and the /v1 API is stable. New capabilities ship in the changelog.
Command Line

Overview

orl is the OpenRelay command-line tool. Log in with an API key, deploy GPU VMs, open SSH sessions, and drive the whole API from your terminal or an agent.

orl is the OpenRelay command-line tool. It wraps the same REST API these docs describe, so anything you can do over HTTPS you can do in one line from a terminal: launch a GPU VM, SSH into it, check your balance, manage keys and clusters, or serve the whole API to an agent.

What you get, and what it costs

orl deploy gives you a GPU VM you SSH into, billed per hour while it runs. Add a card and make a deposit to fund your balance; your first deposit gets a $5 credit match. Check live rates any time with orl catalog pricing get, and stop billing with orl vms stop or orl vms terminate.

Two products, one CLI

Want an OpenAI-compatible API endpoint to call from your app? That is the Inference API, a hosted gateway you reach over HTTPS. No CLI command sends inference requests; you point an OpenAI or Anthropic client at it. Want your own GPU box or container to run whatever you like? Keep reading: that is what orl deploys.

Install

brew install openrelayinc/tap/orl

The Homebrew cask is signed and clears macOS quarantine for you, so orl runs without a Gatekeeper prompt.

Verify the install and see the version:

orl --version
