Developer Experience Comes First

Why Developer Experience Is Core to Halfred

When we built Halfred, we didn’t just ask what features we could offer. We asked: How do we remove every possible point of friction for developers?

The answer? Start with the SDKs. Make integration dead-simple. Handle the hard stuff in the background. And let developers focus on what they do best — building great software.

Lightweight SDKs for Every Platform

Our SDKs are designed to drop into your project with minimal setup and maximum clarity:

  • Node.js / TypeScript: Clean typings, intuitive syntax, and baked-in profile support.
  • Python: One-liners for sending prompts, inspecting usage, and switching profiles.
  • iOS & Android: Mobile-friendly libraries for fast integration, optimized for performance.
  • Flutter: A unified experience for cross-platform apps, with minimal boilerplate.

You can go from idea to production in minutes.

The Magic Behind the Scenes

Halfred handles the model selection, routing, and fallback logic internally — meaning you get:

  • Automatic selection of the best LLM based on cost, speed, and quality
  • Fallback to other providers if something goes wrong
  • Unified billing with prepaid credit
  • No vendor lock-in

And all this with just one API call.

A Dev-First Philosophy

We write the docs we wish we had. We obsess over good defaults. We want every interaction — whether it’s an error message, a type hint, or a CLI tool — to feel like it was made by someone who builds like you.

What’s Next

We’re working on:

  • CLI tools for project scaffolding and local testing
  • VS Code integration for inline testing
  • Open telemetry support and more usage analytics

If you’ve got feedback or ideas, our door is always open.

Let’s keep making this better — together.
