So, there is 0 differentiation from this and OpenRouter. The only difference is just that it is European in name only, but underlying services are not. And the pricing also isn't any cheaper. So, why would I spend my development hours switching to this than just stay on OpenRouter? Just because it's an "EU" alternative? The webpage doesn't even comply with basic GDPR requirements. Sigh.


yeah, why is it on the front page ? I can videcode it in 3 hours or maybe even less.


Indeed; a "European" router serving mostly US models is (deliberately?) missing the point.


How come?

You can use it with just European models if you want.


If you think a routing service based in one country should only use the models from that country, I think you may be the one who is missing the entire point of a routing service in the first place.


It’s the other way around. People are concerned about the various implications of the US and China owning all of the best models, and Europe not really being at the races (Mistral noted). Switching to a European router achieves very little against the current backdrop.
