Momentum
OpenRouter is an API gateway and LLM marketplace giving developers access to 400+ language models from 60+ providers (including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Mistral, DeepSeek) through a single OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Founded in early 2023 by Alex Atallah, it processes roughly 100 trillion tokens per month for over 8 million users and reached a ~$1.3B valuation in a $113M Series B (led by Alphabet's CapitalG) in May 2026. The platform routes inference requests based on price, latency, and availability, consolidates billing in a single credit account, and passes through provider token prices with no per-token markup.
