QuickStart & Benchmark Guide

The NI-Stack requires zero architectural changes to your existing application. It acts as a transparent, drop-in proxy. Simply point your OpenAI or Anthropic client to the DESTILL endpoint.

// ❌ Old Code (Direct to OpenAI)
const client = new OpenAI({
  baseURL: 'https://api.openai.com/v1',
  apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY
});

// ✅ New Code (Routed through NI-Stack)
const client = new OpenAI({
  baseURL: 'https://api.destill.ai/v1',
  apiKey: process.env.DESTILL_API_KEY
});

Note: You configure your OpenAI/Anthropic keys within the DESTILL secure dashboard. The NI-Stack handles the API pass-through securely.

Once integrated, inspect the network payloads. You will immediately notice the effects of STENO (Shorthand Compression) and ORACLE (Hash Pointer Memory).

Run your internal load tests. You should observe the following verified metrics derived from the 16M prompt dataset running on the Hetzner AX42 production environment.
