OpenRouter Guide

OpenRouter Client for Web, iPhone, and Android

Use OpenRouter in one BYOK AI client across web, iPhone, and Android. Switch between GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, and more with local-first data and real-time cost tracking.

  • Use one OpenRouter key across web, iPhone, and Android.
  • Track conversation costs instead of guessing from provider dashboards.
  • Keep your chat history local-first, with optional cross-device sync when you want it.

What people want from an OpenRouter client

Most people searching for an OpenRouter client want one place to use many models without juggling separate apps or browser tabs. They want OpenRouter because it unlocks choice, but they still need a serious interface for daily work.

Oriveo is built for that workflow: one chat app for OpenRouter, direct provider keys, and a real cross-device experience instead of a single-device workaround.

Why Oriveo works well with OpenRouter

OpenRouter gives you model breadth. Oriveo gives you the product layer on top: conversation history, local-first storage, message-level cost visibility, and a consistent chat experience across devices.

  • Use OpenRouter when you want broad model coverage from one key.
  • Mix OpenRouter with direct OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini keys when you want more control.
  • Keep your costs visible while comparing models for coding, research, and everyday chat.

When to use OpenRouter vs direct provider keys

OpenRouter is excellent when speed of setup and model variety matter most. Direct provider keys are often better when you need a specific billing path, provider-native features, or a more opinionated setup.
