It has image/video input support (that is surprisingly good)

No, because the cache is local to the GPUs and there would be no cost/compute reason to have long-lived caches outside of the 1 hour cache already done by LLM APIs.

If it's a really really good model, then yes, people will switch as long as the price is right. Ox Alpha is looking to be a really really good model to the point that it competes with Fable/Sol, and will likely beat them on price.

You cannot "dox" an AI model. Given the traction the model has received, it is extremely newsworthy to know who's developing and hosting it.

The other tell from the provider angle is capacity. Whoever is hosting Ox Alpha has a lot of capacity which narrows down a lot of the Chinese companies.

Unless it's an avant-garde A/B test with two endpoints targeting the same model, we now know it isn't.

For short context usage: Before: $5/M input and $30/M output After: $4/M input (20% cheaper) and $20/M output (33% cheaper) Given the promotional nature of it only being 3 months, I suspect this drop is more competition-

Model is suspiciously fast and has a low reported output token count (using via OpenRouter's Chat), both of which aren't representative of models from the big Chinese labs. Odd.

That policy is extremely reasonable compared to other subreddits which have enacted similar policies, so naturally there's a shitstorm.

Many different people in this HN submission have given you similar feedback: given that, you should consider that your priors are not correct.

Free model usage is controlled by the LLM provider, not OpenRouter. Both parties have their own incentives to allow it and that would not change with different owners.

I'd suspect it's related to the rise of good/cheap Chinese models, and OpenRouter is the best way to use them without jumping through a ton of hoops.

You are cleanly demonstrating why people don't respond to these arguments: it's a waste of time for everyone involved because the goalposts always move.

I did not flag you, but you clearly have a personal vendetta with Gruber that is best-case off-topic and nonconstructive, which is against HN guidelines.

Rebuilding and fixing their apps costs money and may not have a positive ROI. They will not "recoup the build cost" if it doesn't meaningfully change downstream user behavior.

Everything is cheaper if using a subscription, but some applications require API usage.
