OpenRouter



OpenRouter announced that it is now officially part of Stripe. OpenRouter says more than 10 million developers and companies use it, and that as they build with more models across more workloads they need control over what it costs and where their data goes. Stripe says it is building the economic infrastructure for AI and will work with OpenRouter to help businesses explore new models and optimize token routing and usage. Neither announcement says whether existing products, pricing or accounts will change.
