🚀 OmniRoute — The Free AI Gateway

💰 ~1.51B Free Tokens / Month

Stacking free tiers by hand is painful — dozens of SDKs, dozens of rate limits, and no idea how much you actually have. OmniRoute catalogs 446 free-tier entries across 38 recurring pool keys and computes the token headline from the 20 pools with a published positive monthly budget, deduplicated by shared pool. The result stays visible on the dashboard (/dashboard/free-tiers).

Animated summary of the live /dashboard/free-tiers page. Full methodology (pool dedupe, credit tiers, provider terms): docs/reference/FREE_TIERS.md.

These figures are re-audited every two weeks against the live catalog and move both ways — a provider ends a free tier and the number drops; a new one lands and it climbs. We publish what the catalog actually computes, never a rounded-up best case.

📈 The Gateway Keeps Growing

→ Roadmap — riding the rail to v3.9.0 LTS

🧩 Available

🆓 Works the second you install it — no keys, no config

# Fresh install, zero credentials — `auto` already works:
curl http://localhost:20128/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model":"auto","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello!"}]}'

Prefer a specific free backend? Call oc/… (OpenCode Free) directly. Then graduate to auto and let OmniRoute pick.

🎯 Combos — The Flagship

A combo is a chain of models OmniRoute routes across automatically. If quota runs out, a provider fails, or costs spike, the combo can move to the next eligible healthy model. 🛡️

⚡ Zero-config — just use auto

No combo to create. Set your model to auto (or a variant) and OmniRoute builds a virtual combo from your connected providers, scored live:

🔀 Or build your own — 19 routing strategies

All 19 strategies — mix & match per combo step:

The Auto-Combo engine scores every candidate on 16 factors (health, quota, cost, latency, task fit, quality, session availability…) — see docs/routing/AUTO-COMBO.md.

🧱 Resilience is built in (3 independent layers)

OmniRoute is MIT-licensed and maintained in the open. If it saves you time or money, here's how to keep it independent — pick whatever fits you. Sponsorship never affects routing priority; it buys visibility, not ranking.

📡 OmniRoute Radar

The main free-tier headline remains ~1.51B tokens/month from the documented, pool-deduplicated catalog above. Temporary provider signup credits can separately lift the first month to ~2.13B. Radar is an optional, signed catalog overlay for people who want fresher free-model availability between OmniRoute releases; the community catalog and every existing free feature remain free.

Supporters can receive the live catalog and additional provider opportunities. Its separate, mutable ceiling is approximately 3B tokens/month at most, depending on provider availability. That ceiling is not a guarantee: providers can change quotas, eligibility, models, or regions at any time.

Radar is opt-in and GET-only. The OmniRoute client does not upload prompts, traffic, provider configuration, usage telemetry, or local announcement-dismiss state. Learn about eligibility and the current catalog at radar.omniroute.online/planos.

✨ What's New

• 🎛️ OmniConductor — inbound A2A delegation to your agent fleet, Conductor skills on the Agent Card, and a dashboard panel with Faro push-to-talk voice chat. → A2A Server
• 🛂 Adaptive admission & overload protection — heavyweight chat requests queue instead of 503ing, with atomic RPM rolling leases per connection. → Resilience Guide
• 🗂️ Canonical /v1/models ordering — one contiguous provider-grouped block per provider (combos pinned first), stable across every catalog source. → API Reference
• 🗜️ Compression hardening — default-on inflation guard, Caveman packs for DE / FR / JA + Chinese (wényán), RTK filters for Gradle & .NET. → Compression
• 💸 Honest flat-rate cost — subscription / coding-plan providers read $0 in cost analytics; budget, quota & routing keep estimating. → API Reference
• ⚖️ Quota-Share routing — split a shared account's quota fairly across pooled keys, work-conserving so idle slices are lent out. → Resilience Guide
• 🤖 One-command CLI/agent setup — 13 registered setup-* commands; omniroute run launches 7 CLIs (Claude Code, Codex, Aider, Goose, OpenCode, Qwen Code, Gemini CLI); omniroute configure supports 10 targets with an interactive provider+model picker and per-context favorites. → CLI Integrations
