Is that 100M of openrouter revenue? Or money that flows through openrouter? If the latter, 100M$ annualized looks like very little. It's as if a bank said that it has 100M$ of annual transfers, instead of 100M in revenue from bank fees and such.

Hard to think of any type of company that can do the topline meme as effectively as a compute aggregator proxy. Almost like a bitcoin pool mining company counting their shared miners.

Really? 100M annual? That HAS to be profit, it can't be this crazy.

EDIT: From their website, they say they have 200T monthly tokens, at 10 cents per M token ( optimistic average between free tokens and expensive tokens) that's 20M$/month, which is roughly 240M$.

Bonus track: here's chatgpt completely fumbling the above very simple calculation

I don't doubt the chinese bootleg product that openrouter is peddling is even worse than that.

We are in a bubble confirmed.

Sorry for the negativity, but this is highly bearish news.
