Clear Pricing Before You Route Production Traffic
Pricing is more than a model table. Compare model prices, understand pay-as-you-go versus BYOK economics, and see exactly how usage translates into spend.
What to review before you approve budget
Use the model catalog, confirm BYOK fee behavior, and connect usage accounting to your billing workflow before you move meaningful traffic.
Model Catalog
Browse model-by-model pricing, context windows, and capabilities before you decide on a routing strategy.
BYOK Economics
Keep model costs on your own cloud account while understanding when TheRouter may still apply a platform fee.
Usage Accounting
Track every request as auditable cost data with detailed usage breakdowns, activity analytics, and billing reconciliation.
Transparent Pricing
Compare current model pricing for pay-as-you-go and BYOK options.
Payments are processed through Stripe Checkout.
Available card and wallet options vary by region and eligibility. The final payment methods are shown in checkout before you confirm the purchase.
