Editors' review
The same pitch as OpenRouter, with a decisions API attached
Pass-through pricing on a model gateway is now table stakes. The differentiator here is the decisions API for classification, routing and scoring, which is a narrower but genuinely common need.
Compare against OpenRouter on model coverage and uptime before choosing, since the pricing argument is a wash.
Verdict
Worth comparing against OpenRouter. The decisions API is the reason to pick it.
