Arbr launches to route AI calls across any provider, pitching freedom from lock-in

The team behind Arbr (Prasanna Vaidya, Shubham Deshmukh and the author) has officially launched. Their core argument: teams building with AI are quietly giving up control — over which models they run, over their data, and over what happens when a provider raises prices, deprecates a model, or ships an update that breaks production.
Arbr's answer is "independence": route every call across any provider, escaping lock-in to a single vendor.
