Routor uses a prepaid credit system. You add credits and API calls draw from your balance as you use them.

How Credits Work

  • 1 credit equals $1.00 USD
  • Credits are deducted per API call based on actual token usage plus Routor’s markup
  • Credits never expire
  • Signup is free - top up from the Billing page to start making requests
Billing overview - credit balance, plans and pricing, and transaction history

Pricing

Routor charges the provider’s rate plus a flat 10% routing markup - the same rate whether you use auto, tier, or direct mode. Example: If a request costs $0.01 on the provider, Routor charges $0.011. Because Routor routes most requests to cheaper models, your total bill is typically more than 60% lower than routing everything to a premium model, even with the markup included.

Viewing Your Balance

Your credit balance appears in the top-right corner of the dashboard and on the Billing page.
