This seems super amateur and your privacy policy sucks compared to OpenRouter. Also it's weird you have time to respond to trivial questions but not questions like "why would I use this over the entrenched leader in this space".

No docs or info without signing up, confusing Grok and Groq, and claiming you have access to o4 models which haven't been released makes this look like an incredibly unserious offering.

neat idea. random tiny piece of site feedback: make the hero backgrounds dark so that the text is legible as the image loads in. more constructively, this is the kind of code ai is great at writing in my codebase and once it’s there locally as a library, it’s free. it’s not clear to me why I’d want it behind an api instead, at least as a solo-ish dev. I’d recommend looking at the similar openrouter that seems to have…

Thanks for the feedback! Will work on some updates for the hero backgrounds.

On your point about local code vs. API:

- We handle all the authentication, rate limiting, and API differences between providers, which becomes complex when working with multiple models. Our platform allows smart switching between different models depending on the message context.

- Our switching is optimized for performance. We provide detailed usage analytics and cost management across models so you can optimize which models to use where. This allows you to see what costs your users may be incurring / misbehaving.

We're building features that go beyond what's easily replicable locally, including some of the agent and evaluation capabilities you mentioned (rolling out over the next two weeks). OpenRouter is definitely doing great things in this space. We're taking a slightly different approach by focusing on bringing customization within the dashboard to allow for on-the-fly updates without pushing new code edits.

Appreciate the feedback and hopefully you get a chance to try out the tool!

You are correct, of course, but do you think your comment would be better received if you presented it as constructive feedback? e.g.

Consider enhancing your privacy policy to match industry standards, similar to OpenRouter. Focus on addressing significant questions, like how your product stands out from established competitors. Ensure there’s no confusion between Grok and Groq. Also, verify the availability of features like access to o4 models to avoid any misunderstandings.

I considered being polite but the fact OP had already chosen to not answer these actual questions makes me question why anyone would trust this site with their payment data or even personal data.

Who cares if it’s better received? They are lying about model access and incorrectly identify the producers of AI models. This business seem to be made by unserious people and sounding the alarm is the correct thing to do.
