So I only have 1 ChatGPT Pro $200/mo plan and I've been running out of usage pretty fast using GPT-6 Astra, but since they stopped allowing additional subscriptions to the $200/mo plan, I've been looking for alternatives to still be able to use Astra at a reasonable price.

Found a few places where you can use excess compute at a discounted rate, but the issue I found with these was that a lot of providers have inconsistent performance. Prices and availability vary across providers, and a cheap endpoint can behave differently when you add streaming, tool calls, reasoning, caching, etc.

So a friend and I built an auto-router that brings multiple discounted providers behind a single API to automatically route requests to the provider that gets you the absolute best per token price for a specific request.

Been using it primarily within Claude Code, using Claude Code as the orchestrator that calls the discounted models, and so far I've saved over $1k already at an average of 66% savings, peaking at almost 90% savings on GPT 6 Astra calls. Been pretty incredible so far.

To give you an idea on how fat these discounts are, GPT 6 Astra is 88% off right now, Fable 5.1 is 74% off, Deepseek v4.1 Flash is 74% off, GLM 5.3 is 98% off, and a ton ton more.

We also trained our own classifier model that we're using for our own "Fusion" models, which basically allows you to combine multiple models into one and on each request, our classifier will route tasks to different models based on what the task is. The goal here is to get comparable performance to top models at an even lower per token cost. Think the Sukuna Fugu models, but you can build your own.

Been using Astra for reasoning, GLM 5.3 for coding and Gemini 3.1 flash for writing, which has saved a tonnn on inference for me as well. Will be benchmarking performance at some point, to see if there's some combination of models that beats out Astra at a fraction of the price, but that's still in the works.

Anyway, curious to see what ya'll think and if it's something you'd use. Any feedback or questions, I'd be happy to take! Main goal here is to just not have to pay disgusitng market rates for inference and so far I've been getting pretty addicted to watchign my savings number go up lol.

I built Openrouter, except you save 88% on GPT 6 Astra, 74% on Fable 5.1, 98% on GLM 5.3, and 400+ more models
