OpenRouter
Single API for 200+ LLMs — route between Claude, GPT, Gemini, Llama, and more.
Add OpenRouter to your hut →OpenRouter is a unified API that routes to 200+ LLMs from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Mistral, and dozens of other providers. One API key, one endpoint format — you switch models by changing a single string. It's designed for developers building apps that need model flexibility: comparing outputs across providers, falling back to cheaper models for simple tasks, or giving users a model picker without managing separate API accounts and billing relationships.
Pricing is usage-based at the model provider's rates, with some models available for free (rate-limited). No monthly subscription. Most often compared to managing separate API keys per provider — OpenRouter's edge is a unified dashboard for cost tracking across all models, plus access to models that would otherwise require separate enterprise agreements.
