You.com CEO Richard Socher announced Inference Router, an enterprise inference service bundling leading open-weight models, built-in web search, 99.9% uptime SLA with service credits, zero data retention, US-hosted infrastructure, and multi-provider failover behind one OpenAI-compatible API with no platform fee. Search runs on the same server as the model, cutting latency 15% in internal testing. In an independent Braintrust evaluation, an open-weight model with You.com's web search matched or beat a leading closed model's built-in search at up to 75% lower cost per question. The company has run AI + web search together in production since 2022, powering 2B search API calls/month.
