Key insights

Concrete technical or product signals.

  • Router.com is designed for teams that want to change models or providers behind a stable application API.
  • Shadow routing can compare candidate models on production-shaped requests while the current model continues serving users.

Use cases

Where this shines in production.

  • Routing requests by quality, latency, reliability, and cost
  • Testing candidate models with shadow production traffic
  • Escalating only difficult agent turns to more capable models
  • Tracking model, provider, tier, tokens, latency, cost, and fallback attempts

Limitations & trade-offs

What to watch for.

  • Routing quality depends on representative evaluations and workload-specific objectives; generic benchmarks are not sufficient for every application.
  • A gateway adds another operational dependency, so teams should test failure behavior, data handling, provider coverage, and migration paths.
  • Launch pricing and credits are promotional and should be rechecked before procurement.
