ACLIDE vs Zed

ACLIDE is a multi-provider AI API gateway that gives access to models using one API key. Its catalog lists 115 models, and the API supports OpenAI Responses and Anthropic Messages formats. A dashboard tracks requests, tokens, costs, models and limits; setup guides cover Codex CLI, OpenCode, Claude Code, Cursor and Cline. Monthly usage credits renew without rolling over, and calls stop when the allowance is used up, with no automatic overage charges. Requests send the context needed to the selected model provider, while usage logs retain request metadata such as model, tokens, credits, latency and status, not prompts or responses. API keys are shown in plain text only once; ACLIDE keeps each key’s SHA-256 hash, prefix and final four characters. Hosted on OVHcloud infrastructure in France, ACLIDE is a project of the Skyclouds registered association in Mozac, France. It has a free plan with €20 in monthly usage credits and paid monthly plans: Essential is €5, Solo €20, Studio €50, Team €100 and Priority €200. Support is by ticket on the lower plans, with priority or enhanced priority support on the higher tiers.

Zed is a code editor for macOS, Windows, and Linux, with Personal, Pro, and Business plans. Personal is free forever and includes 2,000 accepted edit predictions; it also allows unlimited use with API keys or external agents. Pro costs $10.00 per month, includes unlimited edit predictions and $5 of tokens, and bills usage beyond that allowance at API list price plus 10%. The Pro trial lasts 14 days or until its $5 balance is used, with no credit card required. Editing tools include extensions, multi-cursor and column editing, and macro recording; the editor also supports a built-in debugger, remote development, and language servers. Native Git operations include staging, commits, pulls, pushes, and viewing diffs. Users can chat with teammates, code together, and share screens and projects. Supported model providers include Amazon Bedrock, Anthropic, GitHub Copilot, Google AI, and OpenAI; the extension ecosystem has hundreds of extensions. Business costs $30.00 per month and has no minimum seat count. SSO, SAML, and SCIM are planned but not currently available.
