Does OpenRouter eat this cost to get their hands on a copy of the conversations people are using with the model?
I used over a billion tokens per day of gpt-5.6 sol xhigh starting last Wednesday through Sunday before reaching my reset limit. The $200 pro plan is still the best deal.
I spent $800 in a few hours when my sub maxed out because I was trying to get something done and had a long car ride to let it churn. Their api pricing is absurdly expensive.
I assume at this point that it subsidizes subscriptions.

Which raises the question - who is subsidizing this, and why?
Possibly OAI? If you have OAI tokens you are a captive audience. If you have OpenRouter you are bidding on a free market. OpenRouter attributes this promotion to OpenAI https://x.com/OpenRouter/status/2089416739398254662
