    TrustedRouter

    TrustedRouter

    TrustedRouter

    TrustedRouter is a privacy-first AI gateway that gives developers access to 600+ AI models from 90+ providers through one OpenAI-compatible API. It routes requests through an attested gateway that does not log prompt or output content, keeping the production prompt path separate from the dashboard and billing control plane so even its engineers cannot read requests. Developers can keep the OpenAI SDK and migrate by changing a single base URL, while choosing direct model IDs or routing aliases for healthy-provider rollover, zero-retention providers, confidential compute, EU-focused routing, and multi-model synthesis. Provider failover, regional routing, and continuous model health measurements help prevent a single upstream outage from becoming a product outage. TrustedRouter runs across GCP, AWS, and Azure and publishes latency, availability, source code, deployment infrastructure, SDKs, and trust evidence for inspection.

    discode.ai

    discode.ai

    discode.ai

    discode is an AI chat platform built around one input field, 100+ AI models, and automatic model selection, so users choose the rhythm, not the algorithm. Instead of juggling multiple subscriptions, tabs, benchmarks, and provider limits, users ask a question and discode picks the right model for the job. Every request is analyzed by topic, complexity, and language, then routed to the best available model based on quality, speed, sustainability, and the user’s own settings. Light tasks can go to fast, resource-efficient models, while harder tasks can be sent to specialist or frontier models when needed. discode also explains which model was chosen and why, keeping routing transparent instead of turning it into a black box. Its Turntables let users weigh what matters most, such as smarter output, faster answers, or better eco impact, while Smart Prompting quietly optimizes prompts in the background for different model families and domains.
