Quick Setup
Option 1: Environment Variable (fastest)
export AISA_API_KEY="your-key-here"
OpenClaw auto-detects AISA_API_KEY and registers AIsa as a provider. No config file changes needed.
Option 2: Interactive Onboarding
openclaw onboard --auth-choice aisa-api-key
Option 3: CLI with Key
openclaw onboard --auth-choice aisa-api-key --aisa-api-key "your-key-here"
Option 4: Manual Config in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json

⭐ Kimi K2.5 — Moonshot AI's Flagship Model
Kimi K2.5 is Moonshot AI's latest reasoning model, accessible via AIsa at approximately 80% of official Moonshot pricing.
Key features:
- Strong reasoning and multi-step problem solving
- Competitive performance on coding and math benchmarks
- Available through AIsa's Moonshot partnership
🔒 Zero Data Retention (ZDR) — Enterprise-Grade Privacy
Accessing Kimi K2.5 through AIsa comes with enterprise-level Zero Data Retention guarantees. Users do not need to worry about data privacy — AIsa has executed a formal ZDR agreement with Moonshot AI.
Under the Supplemental Enterprise Service Agreement (dated 10 February 2026) between AIsa and Kimi (Moonshot AI PTE. LTD.):
- Customer data is NOT retained by Moonshot after processing
- Generated outputs are NOT stored on Moonshot's infrastructure
- No data is used for model training — your prompts and completions remain private
- Processing is governed by contractual enterprise terms, not consumer ToS
This makes AIsa the recommended path for privacy-sensitive or enterprise workloads that require access to Kimi K2.5. When calling Kimi K2.5 directly via Moonshot's consumer API, standard consumer data policies apply — by routing through AIsa, your data benefits from the negotiated ZDR protections.
⚠️ Important: Temperature restriction
Kimi K2.5 only accepts temperature=1.0. Using any other value will return an error:
Error: invalid temperature: only 1 is allowed for this model
If your OpenClaw config or agent sets a different temperature, override it for Kimi:
/model aisa/kimi-k2.5
OpenClaw will use the model's default temperature when not explicitly set.
Kimi K2.5 Pricing Comparison (per 1M tokens):
| Metric | AIsa | Moonshot Official | Savings |
|---|
| Input/1M | ~$0.60 | ~$0.75 | ~20% off |
| Output/1M | ~$2.40 | ~$3.00 | ~20% off |

- BytePlus — Doubao by ByteDance
- DeepSeek — via Alibaba Cloud integration
- Moonshot — Kimi K2.5 integration, with enterprise Zero Data Retention (ZDR) agreement (effective Feb 10, 2026)
Qwen Region Support
AIsa provides access to Qwen models across 3 global regions via Alibaba Cloud:

Response Latency (tested Feb 2026)
| Model | Avg Latency | Rating |
|---|
| Qwen3 Max | ~1,577 ms | ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fastest |
| Qwen MT Flash | ~1,918 ms | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fast |

| Qwen Plus | ~8,207 ms | ⭐⭐ Slower |
Troubleshooting
"503 - No available channels" error
The model ID may be incorrect or outdated. Check the Model ID Versioning section above for correct IDs. Common fixes:
qwen3-plus → use qwen-plus-2025-12-01qwen3-flash → use qwen-mt-flash
"Model not found" error
Ensure the model ID uses the aisa/ prefix in OpenClaw config:
✅ aisa/qwen3-max
❌ qwen3-max
Kimi K2.5 "invalid temperature" error
Kimi K2.5 only accepts temperature=1.0. If your config sets a different temperature, add a model-specific override or let OpenClaw use the default.
Kimi K2.5 empty response
In rare cases Kimi K2.5 may return empty content while consuming output tokens. Retry the request — this is typically transient.
API key not detected
- Check env var:
echo $AISA_API_KEY
- Or verify in config:
openclaw config get auth.profiles
- Re-run onboarding:
openclaw onboard --auth-choice aisa-api-key
Streaming not working
AIsa uses the OpenAI-compatible API (openai-completions). Ensure your config has:
"api": "openai-completions"
Rate limits or daily caps
AIsa has no daily request limits (unlike the free Qwen Portal which caps at 2,000 req/day).
Get an API Key
