Openrouter is useful for quickly testing various models with just one API. In development, it's useful. I would not run it in production tho' for all the caveat mentioned. Go to the first party provider directly, it's cheaper usually. And the cost to rewrite to use their API is usually noting (you can even have both and a feature flag), especially if you just vibe code it.
