Model Pricing

AI gateway traffic comparison

Tokens per day by gateway, and how many providers each routes through. Portkey handles 1.9T tokens/day for enterprise customers routing through 2–3 providers. OpenRouter serves 3,200B+ tokens/day across 400+ models.

Both gateways are passthrough. Their tokens are already counted in provider totals, so these figures show how demand is distributed rather than adding to it.

Model share by gateway

What this compares: Portkey serves enterprise and production AI across 24K organisations. OpenRouter skews developer and prosumer across 2.5M users. The two model rankings sit side by side so their shares can be read against each other. On the dates shown, Claude holds ~30% of Portkey traffic and OpenRouter's traffic is spread across more models.

Analyst note, 24/08/2026: the spread is consistent with enterprises consolidating on fewer providers while developers try more of them. The gateways publish no buyer detail, so that reading is inference, not measurement.
