Comment by hhthrowaway1230 17 hours ago note: doesn't openrouter charge 5.5% fee? 7 comments hhthrowaway1230 Reply kisamoto 17 hours ago You are absolutely correct, I was not aware of this. I will update the article accordingly and perhaps it's more worthwhile to stay solely on Cursor with the limited models.Sadly Zed seems to add 10% so it's still more worthwhile to use OpenRouter. giancarlostoro 7 hours ago Look again, they don't charge that fee until after "1M requests per month" whatever that means? Oh that's if you bring your own provider keys.https://openrouter.ai/docs/guides/overview/auth/byok cedws 16 hours ago I feel like a bit of an idiot because I didn’t know this either. I just assumed OR was another startup burning money to provide models at cost.OpenRouter is a valuable service but I’ll probably try to run my own router going forward.
