i got shivers thinking about a future ai dynamic pricing and automatic gateway choosing the cheapest provider available
 help



Openrouter already does this, unless I've misunderstood the premise.

They can route between models but you pay the standard rate for whichever model is selected (plus 5% fee). Afaik all current model providers have fixed prices per tokens which don't vary depending on, say, demand or hardware availability.

shivers? as in it frightens you? i believe there is no way around tokens being prices like gasoline at the gas station - it changes every hour. Any other system means you are either over- or underspending.
