Use Standard Compute with Zed

A fast, multiplayer code editor written in Rust with built-in AI assistant. It speaks the OpenAI format, so it works with Standard Compute as a custom model provider — point the base URL at us, drop in your key, set the model to standardcompute, and get unlimited frontier-model compute at one flat price.

Where to set them in Zed

The exact spot Zed keeps its OpenAI-compatible base URL.

  1. Open Zed settings (settings.json) and find the assistant / language_models block.
  2. Add an OpenAI-compatible provider with api_url set to the Base URL.
  3. Set your API key and use standardcompute as the model.

Why point Zed at Standard Compute

The base-URL swap is the easy part — here's what you get on the other side.

Unlimited compute, flat price
No per-token billing or usage caps. One predictable monthly price, however hard your agent runs.
Frontier models, auto-routed
standardcompute routes each request to the best frontier model — you never pick or update model names.
Nothing to rewrite
Identical OpenAI request/response format. Swap the base URL and key; your code stays exactly the same.
