OpenRouter?
- lionkor 2mo agoNo, platform.deepseek.com for me! The caching is super important, not sure how open router performs, I haven't tried it.
- marcus_cemes 2mo agoWorks out of the box with OpenRouter for most models. Some providers are a bit flaky, but DeekSeek (provider) has been one of the most reliable for me, no problems hitting >99% CH.
- enduser 2mo agoThe problem is when OpenRouter switches providers..

- marcus_cemes 2mo agoThat's fair, each provider maintains their own cache. OpenRouter does make an effort to keep providers "sticky", but it may hop/stick to another if latency is too high. If you don't care about latency, you can create a preset with a single provider, then use that as the model key (i.e. `@preset/deekseek-v4-excl`). The only real downside is OpenRouter's service fee. If you don't want the convenience of switching models, or their excellent dashboard, it's definitely better to pay the provider directly.
