Like what's the angle here, and what's the outlook for LLM routers like Openrouter to justify a 10B valuation?

Somebody enlighten me.

OpenRouter is a marketplace (“OpenRouter, a fast-growing marketplace that enables developers to route traffic across various artificial intelligence models”).

Market places mean payments. Stripe does payments.

That's a good point actually. I just recalled that Openrouter charges a premium of 5.5% on transactions. That's probably comparable or fat relative to the cut for payments processors like Stripe.
