Troubleshooting

The most common causes:
  • You selected a paid model but your Routeway account has no balance. Add funds from the dashboard.
  • The proxy URL is incorrect. It must be exactly https://api.routeway.ai/v1/chat/completions.
  • Your API key has extra spaces — re-paste it carefully.
Try these steps:
  1. Re-enter your API key
  2. Refresh the page
  3. Restart your browser
  4. Try a different browser if the issue persists
Verify the model ID matches exactly. Browse available models at routeway.ai/models or use the models endpoint.
This error is not caused by Routeway. It appears when JanitorAI’s own backend fails internally before your message ever reaches your configured proxy. Your request never makes it to Routeway.

What you can do:
  1. Wait a few minutes and try again — it usually resolves on its own
  2. Refresh the page or restart the browser
  3. Try a different character or start a new chat
  4. If it persists, JanitorAI may be experiencing downtime
