You.com uses OpenRouter as reranking layer: 3x fewer tokens, 84% benchmark accuracy
RichardSocher · x · 2026-09-26
You.com revealed it uses OpenRouter as a reranking layer in its newly launched Knowledge feature for the Web Search API. Knowledge returns structured real-time data from authoritative sources (stocks, sports, etc.), so much retrieved web context is unnecessary; the Jev reranker sits between retrieval and synthesis, passing only the most relevant results downstream. The company reports 3x fewer tokens and 84% accuracy on the Vertical RTK benchmark. Richard Socher boosted the post.
