| Like what's the angle here, and what's the outlook for LLM routers like Openrouter to justify a 10B valuation? Somebody enlighten me. |

| ▲ | andsoitis 9 hours ago | parent [-] | | OpenRouter is a marketplace (“OpenRouter, a fast-growing marketplace that enables developers to route traffic across various artificial intelligence models”). Market places mean payments. Stripe does payments. | | |
| ▲ | nlpnerd 9 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | That's a good point actually. I just recalled that Openrouter charges a premium of 5.5% on transactions. That's probably comparable or fat relative to the cut for payments processors like Stripe. | |
