Incredible timing.

router.com! Cool domain though that must have been expensive :P

Routing requests to the ideal model? that's some big talk right there.

The fact that they put "every model" repeatedly, then don't actually support even close to "most mainstream models", makes me highly doubtful their service will be more honest and forthcoming once I'm signed up.

It can't be a coincidence that this dropped today, the same day news dropped about the Stripe acquisition of OpenRouter

darknoon

they really buried the lede on which models are supported, then the link is broken as of now to the list ( https://app.router.com/supported-models )

I guess this is the world we live in now. All companies no matter which sector they belong to must buy AI crap. A few years ago, companies buying random companies from a completely different sector was frowned upon by stakeholders

That's some domain; Blog post: https://ramp.com/blog/router-launch

I just want to know how much the domain cost.

eamag

US only, right?

skeledrew

Looking forward to their inclusion on models.dev.

Why do these Router companies never have BAAs? They can easily get them with the vendors, why not sign with the customer?

Thats basically a direct response of OpenRouter by Stripe? ahaha

I just bought rowtr.ai, it should be ready by the time this one is acquired

"Router itself stores model inputs, outputs, and metadata and uses this data to improve the service, but users may turn this off in settings." Why is it that every AI-product think dark UX with default data harvesting of proprietary data is a great idea? I mean it's rhetorical, stealing for training is the norm, but it's still just as disappointing every time I see it.

Do you see Router eventually taking customer entitlements or credit balances into account, or is the plan to keep it focused on model selection?
