$ROUTOR holders earn Routor AI credits from a reward pool. The pool is funded by Routor’s profit from paid usage, so rewards grow when real people pay for real AI requests.

​
What You Get

Credits from rewards behave like credits you bought. They draw down the same way, at the model’s published rate plus the routing margin described in Plans & Pricing.

​
Where the Pool’s Money Comes From

Routing savings stay with the person who made the request. Under current pricing, buyers pay the model’s own rate plus a routing margin. When Routor picks a cheaper model, the buyer pays less. The pool is funded from Routor’s profit, not from buyers’ savings.

​
From Pool to Your Balance

The pool only pays out what it holds. If a period’s profit is small, that period’s rewards are small. Rewards are never paid ahead of funding.

​
Worked Example

Illustrative numbers only. The real pool share, period length, and distribution rule have not been set. This example shows the mechanics, not a promise.
Suppose, in one reward period: At an average of $0.002 per routed request, $10 in credits covers about 5,000 requests. Because Routor routes routine work to low-cost models, the same credits cover more requests than they would on a frontier-only setup.

Still Being Decided

These parts of the design are not final. This page will be updated when they are.
