OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, DeepSeek, xAI Grok, Alibaba Qwen,
Moonshot Kimi, MiniMax, Kling, and ByteDance Seedance (video) — at
provider cost price.
Why OrcaRouter
Zero markup, ever
You pay the provider’s published price per token. OrcaRouter’s revenue
comes from optional paid subscription plans, not from inflating your
token cost.
OpenAI-compatible by design
Every request and response is in the OpenAI JSON shape. Change one
line (
base_url) and your existing code keeps working — streaming,
tool calling, vision, and reasoning all behave the way your SDK
expects, with the gateway translating to each upstream as needed.Speaks every protocol natively
OrcaRouter exposes OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini surfaces directly,
and translates between them when you call across protocols (e.g.
OpenAI SDK → Claude). New provider features that aren’t in the
common shape stay reachable on the native path.
Smart routing
Fallback chains via
extra_body.models, named routers, and
orcarouter/auto for cheapest-live-model selection.Where to start
