It’s good, but it’s not quite Claude level. And their API has constant capacity issues.
Price/quality is absolutely bonkers though. I loaded $40 a few weeks/months ago and I haven’t even gone through half of it.

It has long been Claude level since 2.5
Why use China model API from China if there are many independent providers available via Openrouter?
Openrouter will route to china hosted models when there are US hosted providers of the same model. Is there a setting to set your preference or to blacklist providers like alibaba cloud for example?
I use OpenCode and the openrouter provider. From opencode I only select the model like kimi-2.6 and have no way of selecting which cloud hosting will receive my request.

Yes, you can blacklist providers in OpenRouter account settings.
Yes, you can globally ban providers in your openrouter settings.
