The European Alternative to Openrouter would be a simple open source proxy, not yet another proprietary service.

Is OpenRouter just a simple open source proxy? If not, how could that possibly be a relevant alternative for people using OpenRouter today?

OpenRouter is far more than a simple proxy.

How so? I haven’t tried it, I stick to one provider for my projects.

It provides failover between multiple providers (of both the same model, with routing based on price, performance or availability, and you can define presets that allows automated failover to entirely different models if you want), middleware/plugins - such as optionally adding auto-compaction or web search, detailed logging, making all the models available via either OpenAI or Anthropic compatible API endpoints.

Eden AI is a solid product and it’s good that there are alternatives to OpenRouter out there.

We don’t brand ourselves as such, but if you’re looking for a European OpenRouter alternative focusing on media models (image, video etc.), I‘ve built that with https://lumenfall.ai

i would use this, but for the privacy issues:

- no zero data retention available for the router itself (rights to retain data flagged by content scanning).

- no stated privacy policies for the providers served on the api. quote: "we work with providers to understand their policies and can provide information about specific providers on request".

on openrouter, on the positive side, they have transparent retention agreements for almost all providers, and also offer zdr.

i wish there will be a time where privacy is for everyone, not just for people who can afford an enterprise sla

> You pay providers directly. We charge nothing extra.

How is it sustainable?

We have direct relationships with providers and get volume discounts.

Besides that, we‘ll introduce paid plans with additional features like observability soon.
