This is awesome! We could have a great service if we joined forces, I just posted about my tool - quip which is a GUI for OpenRouter!

  Sure, I'd be happy to take a look. It's currently just a direct call to the OpenRouter models API, though.

  OpenRouter already has a GUI chat. What’s different?

    I am very confused by this whole product. I also don’t understand how it is different than the models page on openrouter’s website

      Did you refer to my submission? The goal here is to offer a more focused and user-friendly way to compare models side-by-side, which isn't as straightforward on the main OpenRouter models page.

  OpenwebUI (https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui) accepts openrouter API keys and will let you choose from all models on openrouter in a ChatGTP (or even slightly better IMHO) interface.

This is not about routers at all. I was expecting a comparison of models that run OpenWRT or similar. What exactly is an LLM router and why would I use it? Most prices on this page are negative or 0 with tons of significant digits. How does that help?
- pacific01 1y ago
  OpenRouter is a service that lets you access many different LLMs (like OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) through one interface. This site makes pricing comparison easier, which isn't straightforward on the OpenRouter site itself. The $0 price means that the model inference is currently free. Thanks for the feedback, I've added filter out free models anyway.

    That filter isn't entirely working for me - screenshot here: https://gist.github.com/simonw/f6614ef90f670818106f1d1a48212965?permalink_comment_id=5572455#gistcomment-5572455 https://gist.github.com/simonw/f6614ef90f670818106f1d1a48212... It's still showing models with $0.0000 as the price even after I selected "Hide free".
    - pacific01 1y ago
      Ah, missed that one. It was only filtering models that contained 'free'. Fixed that in the current release

Is there a way to find out what the rate limits are before you hit them?
- razemio 1y ago
  You mean for the free models? For the paid there is none on Openrouter.
