Smart LLM routing platform that automatically selects the optimal model based on quality, cost, and speed requirements.

Get your key

  1. Open the AI Router site: airouter.io
  2. Create an account and generate an API key.
  3. Paste it into the Dracon BYOK provider keys, stored encrypted (AES-256-GCM), used browser-direct, works in every Dracon tool.

Gotchas

Browser-direct chat is not available for this provider: We haven't verified its chat endpoints yet.. Dracon provider keys still cover it for tools that run elsewhere (for example a LiteLLM chain from the Dracon Router builder).
