OpenRouter providers who serves this model through OpenRouter, at what price

OpenRouter sends a call without a pinned provider to one of these endpoints, and each endpoint has its own price. Prices are USD per 1M tokens, input / output.

Pinned min: input $0.036 · PrimeIntellect (primeintellect/bf16); output $0.10 · Makora (makora)

Unpinned range: input $0.036–$0.15, output $0.10–$0.60 across 15 providers (listing shows $0.0675 / $0.225).

Price moves of 20% or more since the reading of 8 Nov 2026:

  • Lowest-priced endpoint for the workload: PrimeIntellect (primeintellect/bf16) at $0.32 per 1,000 tasks, before Darkbloom (darkbloom) at $0.37.

Models with the widest provider price spread on OpenRouter

Request fragment that pins PrimeIntellect (primeintellect/bf16):

{"provider": {"order": ["primeintellect/bf16"], "allow_fallbacks": false}}

Request fragment that pins Makora (makora):

{"provider": {"order": ["makora"], "allow_fallbacks": false}}

With fallbacks turned off, OpenRouter does not move the call to another provider. A full endpoint tag pins that endpoint; the provider name alone covers all of its endpoints (OpenRouter provider routing).

Assumption: 3 steps; initial input 50,500 tokens; growth 2,500 tokens/step; visible output 1,000 tokens/step. Month: 14,600 tasks. No hidden reasoning or retries.

Warm-cache saving: $0.0042 per task. Dashed outline: the no-cache bill.

Assumption: first-step cache fraction 75%; earlier context is read again and new context is written. All calls stay within the cache lifetime.

Formula: sum of input, output, cache reads and cache writes × their published rates / 1M. Each step uses its own context tier. Missing cache or batch prices are Unknown.
