# Using Baseten With Roo Code
20+
21+
Baseten provides on-demand frontier model APIs designed for production applications, not just experimentation. Built on the Baseten Inference Stack, these APIs deliver optimized inference for leading open-source models from OpenAI, DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, and Alibaba Cloud.

## Configuration in Roo Code
61+
62+
1. **Open Roo Code Settings:** Click the gear icon (<Codicon name="gear" />) in the Roo Code panel.
63+
64+
2. **Select Provider:** Choose "Baseten" from the "API Provider" dropdown.
65+
66+
3. **Enter API Key:** Paste your Baseten API key into the "Baseten API Key" field.
67+
68+
4. **Select Model:** Choose your desired model from the "Model" dropdown.
69+
70+
:::warning Kimi K2 Thinking Model
71+
To use the `moonshotai/Kimi-K2-Thinking` model, you must enable native tool calling in the Roo Code settings. This setting allows Roo Code to call the model's tools through their native tool processor and is required for this reasoning model to function properly.

## Production-First Architecture
77+
78+
Baseten's Model APIs are built for production environments with several key advantages:
79+
80+
### Enterprise-Grade Reliability
81+
82+
- **Four nines of uptime** (99.99%) through active-active redundancy
83+
- **Cloud-agnostic, multi-cluster autoscaling** for consistent availability
84+
- **SOC 2 Type II certified** and **HIPAA compliant** for security requirements
85+
86+
### Optimized Performance
87+
88+
- **Pre-optimized models** shipped with the Baseten Inference Stack
89+
- **Latest-generation GPUs** with multi-cloud infrastructure
90+
- **Ultra-fast inference** optimized from the bottom up for production workloads
91+
92+
### Cost Efficiency
93+
94+
- **5-10x less expensive** than closed alternatives
95+
- **Optimized multi-cloud infrastructure** for efficient resource utilization
96+
- **Transparent pricing** with no hidden costs or rate limit surprises
97+
98+
### Developer Experience
99+
100+
- **OpenAI compatible API** - migrate by swapping a single URL
101+
- **Drop-in replacement** for closed models with comprehensive observability and analytics
102+
- **Seamless scaling** from Model APIs to dedicated deployments

## Special Features
107+
108+
### Function Calling & Tool Use
109+
110+
All Baseten models support structured outputs, function calling, and tool use as part of the Baseten Inference Stack, making them ideal for agentic applications and coding workflows.

## Tips and Notes
115+
116+
- **Static Model List:** Roo Code uses a curated list of Baseten models. The default model is `zai-org/GLM-4.6`.
117+
118+
- **Multi-Cloud Capacity Management (MCM):** Baseten's multi-cloud infrastructure ensures high availability and low latency globally.
119+
120+
- **Support:** Baseten provides dedicated support for production deployments and can work with you on dedicated resources as you scale.
121+
122+
- **Pricing:** Current pricing is highly competitive and transparent. Prices typically range from $0.10-$6.00 per million tokens, making Baseten significantly more cost-effective than many closed-model alternatives while providing access to state-of-the-art open-source models.
