One OpenAI-compatible gateway for adaptive LLM routing, guardrails, and spend control
Each prompt is graded and routed to the model that clears your quality bar, with configurable fallback chains that retry before a response starts.
Pay provider prices with $0 per-token added on pay-as-you-go and subscriptions, or bring your own provider keys and credits.
PII shielding, jailbreak and injection blocking, and per-call approval for tool and MCP actions run before you are billed.
Request logs, per-prompt receipts, routing and spend dashboards, and copy-as-cURL make every call auditable and attributable.
An extendable launcher that puts your tools, AI, and automations one keystroke away
Open apps, run commands, and search files from a single hotkey, with thousands of community extensions connecting the services you already use.
Chat with leading AI models, call Quick AI from any app, and let AI Extensions act on your connected tools to finish multi-step tasks.
Browse everything you have copied and insert frequently used text or addresses by simply typing a keyword.
Create shortcuts that launch URLs, run scripts, or trigger commands, and assign hotkeys or aliases to the actions you repeat most.
Provides access to a massive catalog of frontier models with flexible routing, but lacks OrcaRouter's dedicated enterprise governance.
