OpenRouter: heavy users now median 6 model families, 2x in a year
sarahookr · x · 2026-11-03
Per OpenRouter's own data, companies and users spending $100+/mo now use a median of 6 model families — double what it was a year ago. OpenRouter frames this as "model neurodiversity" and argues, in an accompanying thread and video, that multi-model usage is accelerating: heavy users increasingly split workloads across model families rather than betting on one.
