About RouterBase
RouterBase is a unified API gateway that gives developers and teams access to 200+ AI models, including GPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama, Mistral and DeepSeek, through a single OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Instead of maintaining separate keys and billing for each provider, you switch models with one line of configuration. RouterBase adds smart routing, automatic failover across providers, and unified billing, so your application keeps running even when an upstream provider has an outage. A free tier is available with no credit card required.

OpenRouter
OpenRouter is a unified interface for LLMs. OpenRouter scouts for the lowest prices and best latencies/throughputs across dozens of providers, and lets you choose how to prioritize them. No need to change your code when switching between models or providers. You can even let users choose and pay for their own. Evals are flawed; instead, compare models by how often they're used for different purposes. Chat with multiple at once in the chatroom. Model usage can be paid by users, developers, or both, and may shift in availability. You can also fetch models, prices, and limits via API. OpenRouter routes requests to the best available providers for your model, given your preferences. By default, requests are load-balanced across the top providers to maximize uptime, but you can customize how this works using the provider object in the request body. Prioritize providers that have not seen significant outages in the last 10 seconds.

FastRouter
FastRouter is a unified API gateway that enables AI applications to access many large language, image, and audio models (like GPT-5, Claude 4 Opus, Gemini 2.5 Pro, Grok 4, etc.) through a single OpenAI-compatible endpoint. It features automatic routing, which dynamically picks the optimal model per request based on factors like cost, latency, and output quality. It supports massive scale (no imposed QPS limits) and ensures high availability via instant failover across model providers. FastRouter also includes cost control and governance tools to set budgets, rate limits, and model permissions per API key or project, and it delivers real-time analytics on token usage, request counts, and spending trends. The integration process is minimal; you simply swap your OpenAI base URL to FastRouter’s endpoint and configure preferences in the dashboard; the routing, optimization, and failover functions then run transparently.
