Where OpenAI requests go
Your code calls AI Runtime, which forwards the request to the provider and keeps only the bill.
Who processes your requests
- Model provider
- OpenAI · data terms
- Gateway
- AI Runtime, AWS us-east-1
Not stored by Tokens.Pay or AI Runtime. Prompts and outputs exist in memory only while the request runs; we keep the billing record. The provider processes the request under its own terms. Zero data retention, exactly
