Routor is pure pay-as-you-go. There is no subscription and no minimum spend - you top up credits and pay per request.

​
Every Account Includes

  • 1 routing profile (with its own dedicated API key)
  • Full access to all providers and models in the catalog
  • Dashboard, Playground, and API access
Signup is free with no credit card. Top up credits from the Billing page to start making requests.

​
Usage-Based Credits

Credits are deducted per API call. The cost is the model’s published rate plus a routing margin.

Example costs

”What time is it in Tokyo?”GLM-4.7 Flash$0.0001$0.00011
”Summarize this email”Gemini 3.1 Flash-Lite$0.0003$0.00033
”Debug this Python function”Claude Sonnet 4.6$0.006$0.0066
”Prove sqrt(2) is irrational”DeepSeek V4 Pro$0.002$0.0022
”Write a legal brief”Claude Opus 4.8$0.025$0.0275
On a typical mixed workload, 60–70% of requests go to budget or light-tier models, so actual average cost per request is far below a single-model baseline.

​
Topping up

Go to Dashboard → Billing → Add Credits. Select a quick-pick amount or enter a custom INR amount. Payment is processed via Razorpay. Credits appear in your account immediately after payment. No auto-renewal. No surprise charges. Credits do not expire.

​
Routing Profiles

Every account includes 1 routing profile. A routing profile lets you set a custom tier range, cost cap, required capabilities, and tool-calling quality floor - and generates a dedicated API key scoped to those rules. Accounts are limited to 1 profile for now - creating a second returns a 403 error. There are no paid profile plans currently.
