https://radar.trulysovereign.ai Changes RADAR detected at OpenRouter model catalogue. en Thu, 24 Sep 2026 04:30:30 GMT https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/0188db92-85d1-4c58-bbc3-c02bbe9d9041 0188db92-85d1-4c58-bbc3-c02bbe9d9041 Thu, 24 Sep 2026 03:31:36 GMT budget OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter's deepseek-pro-latest model changed pricing: prompt tokens decreased slightly from $0.00000038808 to $0.0000003865 per token, but completion tokens increased from $0.00000116424 to $0.0000029 per token (149% increase). Maximum completion tokens increased from 393,216 to 943,718 tokens. Why it matters: If you generate long outputs with this model, your per-request costs will more than double. A 100k token completion that previously cost $0.116 now costs $0.29. The higher output limit means requests that previously hit the cap can now run longer and cost proportionally more. What to do: Calculate your typical completion token usage for this model and reforecast your API budget. If you rely on the output limit as a cost control, set explicit max_tokens parameters in your requests to prevent unexpectedly large bills. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/156b2a0d-978e-48ae-ac5e-e5c9f4a169af 156b2a0d-978e-48ae-ac5e-e5c9f4a169af Thu, 24 Sep 2026 03:31:21 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue Effective now: prompt pricing decreased from $0.15 to $0.14 per million tokens, completion pricing decreased from $0.60 to $0.42 per million tokens (30% reduction). Maximum completion tokens reduced from 393,216 to 131,072. Why it matters: If you generate responses longer than 131,072 tokens, calls will now fail or truncate. The pricing drop reduces costs for existing workloads but the token limit is a breaking change for long-form generation. What to do: Check your application logs for any DeepSeek V4.1 Flash responses exceeding 131,072 tokens in the past 30 days. If found, either switch to a model with higher limits or redesign the prompt to stay under the new ceiling. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/2d9fae4e-86a9-4c20-ab71-7e46259098e5 2d9fae4e-86a9-4c20-ab71-7e46259098e5 Wed, 23 Sep 2026 21:13:08 GMT budget OpenRouter model catalogue Prompt pricing decreased from $0.0000004 to $0.00000038808 per token (3% reduction). Completion pricing decreased from $0.0000043 to $0.00000116424 per token (73% reduction). Maximum completion tokens increased from 384,000 to 393,216 tokens. Why it matters: If you are using this model, your completion costs just dropped by nearly three-quarters. For workloads generating long outputs, the combination of lower per-token cost and higher output ceiling means significantly lower cost per request and fewer truncation issues. What to do: Pull your last 30 days of usage for deepseek-pro-latest from OpenRouter logs. Multiply completion token volume by the old and new rates to quantify the savings, then update your cost forecast and notify whoever owns the AI budget. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/1eb8d1ec-3a98-44e2-adf4-bc6ffb7c8ce4 1eb8d1ec-3a98-44e2-adf4-bc6ffb7c8ce4 Wed, 23 Sep 2026 21:12:46 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue The context_length for inclusionAI: Ling 3.0 Flash VL increased from 131072 to 262144 tokens. Pricing remains unchanged at $0.00000006 per prompt token and $0.00000018 per completion token. Why it matters: If you currently truncate or chunk inputs to fit the old 131k limit, you can now send twice as much context in a single call, reducing multi-turn overhead and improving coherence for long-document tasks. What to do: Grep your codebase for '131072' or references to this model's context limit and evaluate whether batching logic or chunking strategies can be simplified to use the full 262k window. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/f4367632-9ebd-4f1d-8da7-c21f1c617f7b f4367632-9ebd-4f1d-8da7-c21f1c617f7b Wed, 23 Sep 2026 21:12:37 GMT budget OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter's DeepSeek V4.1 Flash model pricing increased from $0.0000001 to $0.00000015 per prompt token (50% increase) and $0.0000005 to $0.0000006 per completion token (20% increase). Maximum completion tokens dropped from 943,718 to 393,216 tokens (58% reduction). Why it matters: Applications generating long outputs will hit the new 393K token ceiling where they previously could produce up to 943K tokens. Monthly costs will increase proportionally for all usage: a workload consuming 1B prompt tokens and 200M completion tokens now costs $270/month instead of $200/month. What to do: Calculate your current monthly token usage for this model and reforecast costs with the new rates. Check whether any workflows rely on outputs exceeding 393,216 tokens and either chunk the requests or switch models. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/61873d88-7667-4f7e-9bb7-d177ca8c8fe0 61873d88-7667-4f7e-9bb7-d177ca8c8fe0 Wed, 23 Sep 2026 16:16:55 GMT budget OpenRouter model catalogue Z.ai GLM 5.3 batch model pricing decreased from $0.00000072 to $0.00000045 per prompt token (37.5% reduction) and from $0.0000024 to $0.000002 per completion token (16.7% reduction), effective as of 23 September 2026. Why it matters: If you are using this model in batch mode, your per-request costs have dropped by roughly one-third on the prompt side. Existing cost forecasts and budget allocations for this model are now overstated. What to do: Rerun cost projections for any workloads using z-ai/glm-5.3:batch and update budget forecasts to reflect the new rates. Notify whoever owns the AI spend line item. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/6c0172e7-7c08-4c28-963d-a2074a2356f7 6c0172e7-7c08-4c28-963d-a2074a2356f7 Wed, 23 Sep 2026 10:56:49 GMT budget OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter raised DeepSeek V4 Flash Latest pricing from $0.00000003 to $0.000000038 per prompt token (+27%) and from $0.000001 to $0.00000055 per completion token (-45%). Change is live as of 23 September 2026. Why it matters: If you are using this model in production, your inference costs decreased by approximately 45% for completion-heavy workloads but increased 27% for prompt-heavy workloads. Net impact depends on your prompt-to-completion token ratio. What to do: Pull last 30 days of usage logs for this model, calculate actual prompt vs completion token distribution, and reforecast monthly spend using the new rates. If completion tokens dominate (typical for generation tasks), you saved money; if prompts dominate (classification, embeddings), costs went up. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/97e7f9c9-337b-4a0b-9b82-aac3000973da 97e7f9c9-337b-4a0b-9b82-aac3000973da Wed, 23 Sep 2026 10:56:17 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue Prompt pricing increased from $0.00000007 to $0.00000008 per token (14% increase). Maximum completion tokens reduced from 235,929 to 131,072 tokens (44% reduction). Changes are live as of 23 September 2026. Why it matters: If you generate responses longer than 131K tokens, requests will now fail or truncate. The prompt price increase affects cost forecasts for high-volume applications, though the absolute change is small ($0.01 per 100K tokens). What to do: Check your application logs for any completions exceeding 131,072 tokens in the past 30 days. If found, either chunk your outputs or switch models. Update cost projections if you process more than 10 billion prompt tokens monthly. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/ad095edd-df01-4fac-a278-0a84ed315743 ad095edd-df01-4fac-a278-0a84ed315743 Wed, 23 Sep 2026 03:42:44 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue The top_provider.max_completion_tokens field dropped from 943,718 to 131,072 tokens—an 86% reduction. Context length remains 1,310,720 tokens. Pricing unchanged at $0.000000075 per prompt token and $0.00000025 per completion token. Why it matters: Any request attempting to generate more than 131,072 tokens will now fail or be truncated. If you rely on long-form generation (summarizing large documents, generating extensive code, multi-turn conversations with large outputs), existing calls may break without warning. What to do: Grep your codebase for max_tokens or max_completion_tokens parameters sent to OpenRouter. If any exceed 131,072, reduce them or split the work into multiple requests. Test one long-output workflow end-to-end this week. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/9895f5ac-8a22-4a5d-aa65-b07795edd647 9895f5ac-8a22-4a5d-aa65-b07795edd647 Wed, 23 Sep 2026 03:42:35 GMT budget OpenRouter model catalogue Effective now, DeepSeek Pro Latest completion pricing increased from $0.0000012/token to $0.0000043/token (3.6x). Prompt pricing rose marginally from $0.0000004 to $0.0000004. Maximum completion tokens dropped from 393,216 to 384,000 (9,216 tokens less). Why it matters: Any application generating long outputs will see immediate cost increases—a 100k token completion now costs $0.43 instead of $0.12. Workloads relying on the full 393k output window will fail or truncate. What to do: Pull last 30 days of DeepSeek Pro usage from OpenRouter, calculate new cost at $0.0000043/completion token, and update your budget forecast. If any jobs request >384k output tokens, either split them or switch models before they hit the new limit. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/c69827bd-de49-4ccd-a64d-1a1b7a7da9ea c69827bd-de49-4ccd-a64d-1a1b7a7da9ea Wed, 23 Sep 2026 03:42:25 GMT budget OpenRouter model catalogue Effective now: prompt pricing decreased from $0.15/M to $0.10/M tokens (33% reduction), completion pricing decreased from $0.60/M to $0.50/M tokens (17% reduction). Maximum completion tokens increased from 384,000 to 943,718. Why it matters: If you are using this model, your per-request costs just decreased by roughly 20-30% depending on prompt/completion ratio. If you previously hit the 384K completion limit, you can now generate responses 2.5x longer without chunking. What to do: Pull last 30 days of usage from your OpenRouter dashboard, recalculate total cost at new rates, and update your budget forecast. If you avoided this model due to output length constraints, re-evaluate it for long-form generation tasks. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/00e9446c-9533-47e7-b05f-055b8713668b 00e9446c-9533-47e7-b05f-055b8713668b Tue, 22 Sep 2026 20:59:45 GMT budget OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter reduced pricing for deepseek/deepseek-pro-latest from $0.00000056364 to $0.00000039996 per prompt token (29% decrease) and $0.00000169092 to $0.00000119988 per completion token (29% decrease). Maximum completion tokens increased from 384,000 to 393,216. Why it matters: If you are using this model, your API costs will drop by roughly 29% with no code changes required. The higher output limit means requests that previously hit the 384K token ceiling can now complete without truncation. What to do: Reforecast your OpenRouter spend for this model downward by 29% and notify whoever owns the budget line. If you have retry logic or truncation handling for 384K token limits, verify it still works correctly at the new 393K ceiling. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/8894ab07-4e7e-45d1-a4e1-3169d3e2c63b 8894ab07-4e7e-45d1-a4e1-3169d3e2c63b Tue, 22 Sep 2026 20:59:33 GMT budget OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter dropped pricing for anthropic/claude-opus-latest from $0.000005 to $0.000004 per prompt token (20% reduction) and from $0.000025 to $0.00002 per completion token (20% reduction), effective now. Why it matters: Any application currently using this model will see immediate cost reduction. Existing budget forecasts and cost alerts based on the old rates are now overstated by 20%. What to do: Update cost projections and budget models to reflect the new rates. If you have spend alerts or cost dashboards for this model, adjust thresholds down by 20% to maintain the same real-dollar triggers. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/8293e819-5a08-45f0-b956-7d0300c6f0d6 8293e819-5a08-45f0-b956-7d0300c6f0d6 Tue, 22 Sep 2026 20:59:12 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter added openai/gpt-6-sol:batch with $0.000001 per prompt token, $0.000005 per completion token, 1.05M token context window, and 128k completion token limit. Why it matters: This is a new batch processing option for GPT-6 Sol at significantly lower pricing than real-time inference, enabling cost-effective processing of large-scale or non-time-sensitive workloads through OpenRouter's unified API. What to do: If you process GPT-6 Sol requests that can tolerate batch latency, test this endpoint with a sample workload to measure cost savings against your current real-time usage. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/696c786e-6f91-4444-89f2-2ae9c172591f 696c786e-6f91-4444-89f2-2ae9c172591f Tue, 22 Sep 2026 20:59:04 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter added openai/gpt-6-sol-pro:batch to their catalogue on 2026-09-22. Pricing is $0.000001 per prompt token and $0.000005 per completion token. Context length is 1,050,000 tokens with a 128,000 token completion limit. Why it matters: Batch processing typically offers 50% cost savings over synchronous API calls for non-time-sensitive workloads. The 1M+ context window enables processing entire codebases or long documents in a single request without chunking. What to do: If you currently use gpt-4 or gpt-4-turbo for batch jobs, benchmark gpt-6-sol-pro:batch against your workload and calculate cost difference at the stated rates. Update your model routing logic to include this identifier if the quality-cost tradeoff works. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/24322636-3796-4d2c-90be-dc690db435d6 24322636-3796-4d2c-90be-dc690db435d6 Tue, 22 Sep 2026 20:58:55 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter added openai/gpt-6-sol-pro to their catalogue on 2026-09-22. Pricing is $0.000002 per prompt token and $0.00001 per completion token. Context length is 1,050,000 tokens with a 128,000 token completion limit. Why it matters: This is a new model tier with significantly expanded context (1M+ tokens) at rates 5x higher for completions than typical GPT-4 pricing. If your application would benefit from the larger context window, you now have a routing option; if cost optimization matters more, this is not the model to default to. What to do: Check whether any of your OpenRouter integrations use dynamic model selection or 'auto' routing that might pick up this model. If so, verify the cost implications before it gets selected in production traffic. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/7249cb54-0cb6-45fc-ba04-8f99ba10bf9c 7249cb54-0cb6-45fc-ba04-8f99ba10bf9c Tue, 22 Sep 2026 20:58:41 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter added openai/gpt-6-luna:batch with pricing at $0.00000005 per prompt token and $0.00000025 per completion token, 1,050,000 token context window, and 128,000 token completion limit. Why it matters: This batch endpoint offers significantly lower pricing than typical real-time models for workloads that can tolerate asynchronous processing, and the 1M+ context window enables processing very large documents or conversations in a single call. What to do: If you have batch processing workloads or need to process documents larger than your current context limits, test this model against your existing pipeline to measure cost savings and latency trade-offs. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/5de430ed-bf81-422c-8c6a-641b3d74c38c 5de430ed-bf81-422c-8c6a-641b3d74c38c Tue, 22 Sep 2026 20:58:13 GMT budget OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter added anthropic/claude-opus-5.5:batch with prompt tokens at $0.000002 and completion at $0.00001, 1M context window, 128k max completion tokens. This is half the cost of the standard Opus 5.5 model. Why it matters: If you run high-volume or non-latency-sensitive Claude Opus 5.5 workloads, batch mode cuts your API costs in half. Batch processing typically adds delay but reduces per-token cost by accepting asynchronous execution. What to do: Identify any Claude Opus 5.5 calls that can tolerate async processing (report generation, bulk analysis, overnight jobs) and test switching those to the :batch endpoint to halve costs on that traffic. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/a14958a8-b11b-4c2c-a9e2-86f70cdecc21 a14958a8-b11b-4c2c-a9e2-86f70cdecc21 Tue, 22 Sep 2026 16:28:36 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue The top_provider.max_completion_tokens for model ~z-ai/glm-latest dropped from 943,718 to 131,072 tokens (86% reduction). Pricing changed negligibly: prompt tokens from $0.0000006545 to $0.0000006538, completion tokens from $0.000002057 to $0.0000020548 per token. Why it matters: Any code requesting completion lengths above 131,072 tokens will now fail or be truncated. If you generate long-form content, transcripts, or batch outputs with this model, those requests will break. What to do: Grep your codebase for max_tokens or max_completion_tokens parameters sent to ~z-ai/glm-latest. If any exceed 131,072, either reduce them or switch to a model with higher limits before your next deployment. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/e0c7de9b-2257-485c-ac70-e6c7e9cec208 e0c7de9b-2257-485c-ac70-e6c7e9cec208 Tue, 22 Sep 2026 16:28:27 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue Prompt pricing dropped from $0.000000624 to $0.00000056364 per token (~10% decrease). Completion pricing dropped from $0.00000288 to $0.00000169092 per token (~41% decrease). Maximum completion tokens reduced from 943,718 to 384,000 tokens (59% reduction). Changes are live as of 22 September 2026. Why it matters: If you generate responses longer than 384,000 tokens, requests will now fail or truncate where they previously succeeded. The cost reduction is real but the capability ceiling dropped by more than half. What to do: Check your application logs for any DeepSeek Pro responses exceeding 384,000 tokens in the past 30 days. If found, either switch to a model with higher limits or redesign the workflow to chunk outputs below the new ceiling. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/f03f2087-0018-42ea-940a-06772654a4a4 f03f2087-0018-42ea-940a-06772654a4a4 Tue, 22 Sep 2026 16:28:18 GMT migrate OpenRouter model catalogue The Z.ai GLM 5.3 batch model reduced max_completion_tokens from 943,718 to 131,072 tokens (86% reduction). Prompt pricing increased from $0.0000007 to $0.00000072 per token (2.9% increase). Completion pricing increased from $0.0000022 to $0.0000024 per token (9.1% increase). Context length remains 1,048,576 tokens. Why it matters: Any batch job generating outputs longer than 131K tokens will now fail or truncate. If you were relying on the previous 943K output capacity for long-form generation, summarization of large documents, or multi-document synthesis, those workflows will break. The pricing increase affects cost forecasts for high-volume batch processing. What to do: Grep your codebase for 'glm-5.3:batch' and check max_tokens or completion length assumptions. If any job expects outputs over 131K tokens, either chunk the work into multiple calls or switch models. Recalculate batch processing costs using the new rates and update budgets if this model handles significant volume. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/4170e7a8-8e1a-4479-ac56-b34fadd5942a 4170e7a8-8e1a-4479-ac56-b34fadd5942a Tue, 22 Sep 2026 16:28:05 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter's Z.ai GLM 5.3 Flash batch model reduced prompt pricing from $0.000000075 to $0.00000006 per token (20% decrease) and completion pricing from $0.00000025 to $0.0000002 per token (20% decrease). Simultaneously, max_completion_tokens dropped from 943,718 to 131,072 tokens (86% reduction). Why it matters: Any workload generating responses longer than 131,072 tokens will now fail or truncate. The pricing reduction does not compensate if you must switch to a different model to preserve output length capability. What to do: Query your logs for calls to z-ai/glm-5.3-flash:batch with completion lengths exceeding 131,072 tokens. If found, test whether your use case tolerates the new limit or requires migration to a model with higher max_completion_tokens before your next production run. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/0737b2da-084d-4ce8-959e-72d583f9f303 0737b2da-084d-4ce8-959e-72d583f9f303 Tue, 22 Sep 2026 16:27:54 GMT budget OpenRouter model catalogue Effective now: prompt pricing increased from $0.0000003 to $0.00000032 per token (~6.7% increase), completion pricing increased from $0.000002 to $0.0000027 per token (35% increase). Maximum completion tokens increased from 65,536 to 262,140. Why it matters: If you are using this model in production, your per-request costs just increased by 35% on the output side. High-volume applications will see material budget impact. The 4x increase in max completion tokens enables longer responses but does not offset the price increase. What to do: Pull usage logs for qwen/qwen3.6-27b from the past 30 days, calculate new monthly cost at the updated rates, and update your budget forecast. If cost is material, evaluate whether switching to a different model in the Qwen family or another provider offers better economics. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/e75db6f3-25c9-431d-a1d2-9f4474f44fc6 e75db6f3-25c9-431d-a1d2-9f4474f44fc6 Tue, 22 Sep 2026 16:27:40 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter's gpt-oss-20b model pricing dropped from $0.00000003 to $0.00000018 per prompt token (40% reduction) and $0.00000013 to $0.00000009 per completion token (31% reduction). Maximum completion tokens reduced from 117,964 to 32,768, effective now. Why it matters: If you generate responses longer than 32K tokens, calls will now truncate or fail. Cost forecasts based on the old pricing are overstated by roughly a third. What to do: Check your application logs for any gpt-oss-20b completions exceeding 32,768 tokens in the past 30 days. If found, either chunk your outputs or switch models. Update your cost model with the new per-token rates. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/56fe4556-5c07-44fd-ad60-0b4cc4ae5732 56fe4556-5c07-44fd-ad60-0b4cc4ae5732 Tue, 22 Sep 2026 16:27:18 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue The context_length for AionLabs: Aion-3.0-Mini increased from 131,072 tokens to 1,048,576 tokens (8x expansion). Pricing remains $0.0000007 per prompt token and $0.0000014 per completion token. Why it matters: Applications currently chunking or truncating inputs to fit the 131K limit can now process 8x more content in a single request, eliminating multi-pass workflows and reducing latency. This changes the cost-performance calculation for document analysis, long-context retrieval, and conversation history retention. What to do: Identify pipelines currently splitting inputs for this model and benchmark end-to-end cost and latency with single-pass processing at the new limit. Update any hardcoded context_length checks from 131072 to 1048576. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/f95482df-2648-4a33-8d2c-abe8e6384c60 f95482df-2648-4a33-8d2c-abe8e6384c60 Tue, 22 Sep 2026 16:27:08 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue The context_length for AionLabs: Aion-3.0 increased from 131,072 tokens to 1,048,576 tokens (8x expansion). Pricing remains unchanged at $0.000003 per prompt token and $0.000006 per completion token. Why it matters: Applications currently chunking or summarizing documents to fit within 131K tokens can now process 8x larger inputs in a single call, reducing complexity and potentially lowering total costs by eliminating multi-pass operations. What to do: Identify code paths that chunk documents or conversations specifically for Aion-3.0's previous 131K limit, and test whether removing that chunking logic improves performance or reduces API calls. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/5c4c17cc-994a-45a1-b88b-4765bdc61b2f 5c4c17cc-994a-45a1-b88b-4765bdc61b2f Tue, 22 Sep 2026 16:27:00 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue The context_length for AionLabs: Aion-2.0 increased from 131,072 tokens to 1,048,576 tokens (8x expansion). Pricing remains unchanged at $0.0000008 per prompt token and $0.0000016 per completion token. Why it matters: Applications currently chunking or truncating inputs to fit the 131K limit can now process 8x more context in a single call, potentially eliminating multi-pass strategies and reducing total API calls for large document processing. What to do: Identify codepaths that chunk inputs for this model and evaluate whether removing chunking logic would reduce latency or cost. Test with representative large inputs to confirm the expanded window works as expected. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/e0d67345-7065-4932-a736-dd92b09f4f68 e0d67345-7065-4932-a736-dd92b09f4f68 Tue, 22 Sep 2026 11:06:46 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue The top_provider.max_completion_tokens limit increased from 102,400 to 943,718 tokens (9.2x increase). Context length remains 1,310,720 tokens. Pricing unchanged at $0.000000075 per prompt token and $0.00000025 per completion token. Why it matters: If you currently cap completion requests at the old 102,400 limit in your code, you are leaving 841,318 tokens of available capacity unused. Conversely, if you request completions without explicit limits, responses could now be 9x larger than before, increasing latency and cost per request by the same factor. What to do: Grep your codebase for max_tokens or max_completion_tokens parameters in OpenRouter calls. If you set explicit caps, decide whether to raise them. If you rely on defaults, add explicit caps now to prevent unexpectedly large responses. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/28edb445-2abd-4cba-9143-e55c36465218 28edb445-2abd-4cba-9143-e55c36465218 Tue, 22 Sep 2026 11:06:37 GMT budget OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter raised the completion token price for deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-latest from $0.0000008 to $0.000001 per token, a 25% increase. Prompt pricing ($0.00000003) and context length (1.31M tokens) remain unchanged. Why it matters: If you generate high volumes of completion tokens with this model, your monthly API costs will increase by 25% at current usage levels. A workload generating 1 billion completion tokens per month now costs $1,000 instead of $800. What to do: Pull your last 30 days of completion token usage for this model ID from OpenRouter logs or your own metrics, multiply by the new rate, and update your cost forecast. If the increase is material, evaluate whether switching to the non-latest pinned version or a different model makes sense. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/dde3cc56-c10e-4d7b-a1d5-540688714a66 dde3cc56-c10e-4d7b-a1d5-540688714a66 Tue, 22 Sep 2026 11:06:28 GMT budget OpenRouter model catalogue OpenRouter's deepseek-pro-latest model pricing changed: prompt tokens from $0.000000558624 to $0.000000624 per token (+11.7%), completion tokens from $0.000001675872 to $0.00000288 per token (+71.6%). Max completion tokens increased from 384,000 to 943,718. Why it matters: Completion token costs rose 72%, which compounds on long-form generation workloads. A 10,000-token completion that cost $0.0168 now costs $0.0288, a $0.012 increase per call. High-volume applications will see material budget impact. What to do: Pull last 30 days of deepseek-pro-latest usage from OpenRouter logs, calculate new cost at current volume, and update your monthly forecast. If completion length averages above 5,000 tokens, evaluate whether the increased max_completion_tokens justifies the 72% cost increase or whether to switch models. https://radar.trulysovereign.ai/items/4c917c6c-75bf-45df-8c0b-4e990a37c4ff 4c917c6c-75bf-45df-8c0b-4e990a37c4ff Tue, 22 Sep 2026 11:06:19 GMT verify_only OpenRouter model catalogue The top_provider.max_completion_tokens value increased from 32768 to 235929 tokens. Context length remains 262144 tokens. Pricing unchanged at $0.00000015 per prompt token and $0.0000012 per completion token. Why it matters: Applications currently capped at 32768 output tokens can now request up to 235929 tokens per completion, enabling longer-form generation without chunking. Existing requests under the old limit continue to work unchanged. What to do: If you have workflows that chunk outputs to stay under 32768 tokens, test whether single-pass generation at higher token counts improves quality or reduces latency for your use case.
