We are not 5% more expensive than openrouter. They charge a 5% fee on all deposits. Furthermore, we have a 5% lightning discount. Thus, we are actually 5% cheaper than openrouter when using lightning.
@Juraj🏴💛🌘 you seem to have a pattern of misrepresenting our pricing for the last year or so...
Lastly and most importantly, we offer premium inference. We (to the maximum extent possible) use brand name providers and route and pay to them directly. We aren't routing our users' queries to questionable providers like many of our competitors are.
Model fraud, credential theft, prompt poisoning, extremely slow token streaming speed, frequent timeouts, etc are all risks when one uses the "discounted" providers.
