What their customers say

Quotes from people at OpenRouter's customers.

“Stealth models are a game-changer for us — our players get access to the newest models the moment they drop, with minimal developer burden. And the provider fallback means if one provider hiccups at 2 AM, the game just keeps running.”

Eli Bullock-Papa · Co-founder · Pax Historia

““People ping me all the time saying they have the best throughput on this model, you should use us. My first question is always: are you on OpenRouter? If the answer is no, I might just wait on that. It would need to be extremely advantageous in some way to overwhelm the ease of use I get by using OpenRouter.””

Aleks Mistratov · Descript

““When we were rolling out this dedicated deployment on Baseten there were some config issues and they were throwing an exception, but OpenRouter just fell back to another provider. We didn't know it was happening. None of our users complained because they didn't see any of the issues.””

Descript

““The on-call for the agent team is extremely quiet. There are built-in default fallbacks and we don't have to do anything. Our internal models are way more noisy. We spend a lot more time maintaining them, but anything that goes through OpenRouter is rock solid.””

Descript

““It's a perfect outsourcing thing, how to route between models. But with this explosion of open-weight models, the ability to easily integrate new models has become critical to our business.””

““I've never even touched a keyboard for that to happen.””

Aleks Mistratov · Descript

““We were just serving one model, basically. And then when we started to serve a second one, we also realized that we could add 10 more for basically very little work.””
