About Us
Router One is the LLM API gateway built for developers who need reliable, affordable access to frontier AI models. One unified endpoint, smart routing across 40+ supported models, automatic provider fallback, real-time cost tracking, and payment methods that work wherever your team is.
What Is Router One?
Router One provides a single API endpoint that connects to all major LLM providers — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, DeepSeek, and more. Instead of managing separate SDKs and dealing with provider-specific authentication, rate limits, and billing, your team uses one consistent interface. The gateway is reachable worldwide — including mainland China — and takes payment by card, Alipay, or stablecoins, so neither geography nor billing blocks a team from frontier AI models.
Core Capabilities
Our platform is built around three pillars: Intelligent Routing that selects a healthy route for each model request; Budget & Rate Control that gives every API key its own maxSpend, rateLimit, and tokenLimitTpm; and Full Observability with request traces, aggregated metrics, and cost breakdowns. Create a separate key for each project, tool, or environment to isolate its spend. We also provide native support for AI coding tools — Claude Code and Codex work out of the box with a simple environment variable change.
Our Philosophy
Calling LLMs directly is a black box — you get a response, but you have no ledger, no trace, and no controls. Through Router One, every LLM call shows its final model and provider, cost, latency, token counts, and status. We believe developers deserve the same operational rigor for AI infrastructure that they expect from every other production system.
What's Next
We focus on making the gateway better at the job it already does: tighter latency, broader provider coverage, sharper observability, lower integration friction. We do not promise agent-orchestration runtimes, Run/Step state machines, or platform layers we are not building. When we ship something, it is because we ship it — not because we put it on a roadmap slide.
