“One API, every model. The OpenAI-compatible format means zero code changes to switch models. Fallback routing is clutch.”
“Small markup over direct API pricing but the convenience and fallback routing are worth it for production apps.”
“Model diversity will only increase. A unified API layer becomes more valuable as the model landscape fragments.”
