OpenRouter
OpenRouter is a unified interface for LLMs. OpenRouter scouts for the lowest prices and best latencies/throughputs across dozens of providers, and lets you choose how to prioritize them. No need to change your code when switching between models or providers. You can even let users choose and pay for their own. Evals are flawed; instead, compare models by how often they're used for different purposes. Chat with multiple at once in the chatroom. Model usage can be paid by users, developers, or both, and may shift in availability. You can also fetch models, prices, and limits via API. OpenRouter routes requests to the best available providers for your model, given your preferences. By default, requests are load-balanced across the top providers to maximize uptime, but you can customize how this works using the provider object in the request body. Prioritize providers that have not seen significant outages in the last 10 seconds.

OrcaRouter
OrcaRouter is an OpenAI-compatible AI model router that sends each prompt to the right model across OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, DeepSeek, Qwen, Kimi, and 200+ frontier and open source models. It is built to preserve frontier answer quality while reducing AI inference spend by grading every prompt and routing hard reasoning to frontier models and routine work to lower-cost open-source models. The routing is quality-graded, never a blind, cheap-model swap, and each request shows the difficulty grade, selected model, provider, and cost so routes are visible, auditable, and reproducible. Developers can switch by changing the API base URL, while existing SDKs, model names, and streaming behavior continue to work as before. OrcaRouter supports automatic failover, so if a provider goes down mid-stream, traffic can switch transparently, and the application avoids user-facing errors. It also includes API key management with spend caps, model allowlists, rate limits, budget enforcement, and more.

FastRouter
FastRouter is a unified API gateway that enables AI applications to access many large language, image, and audio models (like GPT-5, Claude 4 Opus, Gemini 2.5 Pro, Grok 4, etc.) through a single OpenAI-compatible endpoint. It features automatic routing, which dynamically picks the optimal model per request based on factors like cost, latency, and output quality. It supports massive scale (no imposed QPS limits) and ensures high availability via instant failover across model providers. FastRouter also includes cost control and governance tools to set budgets, rate limits, and model permissions per API key or project, and it delivers real-time analytics on token usage, request counts, and spending trends. The integration process is minimal; you simply swap your OpenAI base URL to FastRouter’s endpoint and configure preferences in the dashboard; the routing, optimization, and failover functions then run transparently.

Factory Router
Factory Router is an automatic model-selection system for autonomous software engineering workflows, designed to deliver frontier performance at lower cost and with higher reliability. Instead of expecting engineers to manually choose the best model for every task, Factory Router automatically selects the right model for each Droid session, drawing from a diverse pool of frontier and efficient models. Simple questions, mechanical refactors, documentation updates, small bug fixes, search-heavy investigations, and other routine work can be handled by efficient models, while harder work that genuinely needs deeper reasoning can stay on frontier models. If the selected model struggles to complete a task, Factory Router can move the session to a more capable model to reliably preserve high-quality outcomes. It also routes across models, providers, and capacity sources when endpoints degrade, rate limits hit, or capacity becomes constrained, helping Droid sessions keep working.
