chat2api is a web-to-API bridge and proxy that converts web-based chat sessions into a standardized API format. This allows web accounts to be used programmatically within third-party client applications.
The system includes a multi-account rotator that distributes requests across a pool of authentication tokens using random or sequential polling to bypass rate limits. It also functions as a multimodal API proxy, translating base64 or URL-encoded images and files into formats compatible with web-based chat interfaces.
The project manages the full lifecycle of session tokens, featuring stateful authentication and a mechanism for automatic token refreshing on a schedule. It also provides web interface mirroring to allow direct interaction with the original chat website through a proxy layer.
