Every AI provider. One smart workspace.
Connect your own OpenAI and Anthropic accounts, see usage and budgets at a glance, and let PawRoute send each request to the best model — with a reason you can read.
Summarization task — a cheaper model is sufficient. Connection healthy and within budget. Est. $0.004.
Illustrative example of a routing decision
Unified usage overview
Every connection in one dashboard — estimated spend, tokens, budgets, health, and which accounts are close to their limits.
Smart routing
Each request goes to the best eligible connection and model based on task type, context size, cost, latency, health, and your policy.
Model optimization
Cheap models for bulk work, frontier models for hard problems — with a readable reason for every decision and rule-based saving tips.
Up and running in three steps
Connect an account
Add an OpenAI or Anthropic account you're authorized to use — via an API credential that's encrypted immediately and validated with a test call.
Just chat
Auto mode classifies each task and routes it. Manual mode gives you exact control over connection and model.
See the why
Every reply shows the model, connection, estimated cost, and the reason it was chosen — rate it to improve routing.
Your keys stay yours
Built for people who manage real API budgets — security is the default, not an add-on.
Encrypted at rest
Keys are encrypted with AES-256-GCM before they touch the database, using a server-side key.
Never shown again
After saving you only ever see a masked preview. Full keys are never sent to the browser or written to logs.
Server-side only
All provider traffic uses the official OpenAI and Anthropic SDKs from the server — nothing calls providers from your browser.
You stay in control
Disable or delete a connection anytime. Every sensitive action is recorded in an audit log.
Free during beta
You pay your providers directly for tokens, as always. PawRoute itself is free while we finalize plans — no credit card needed.
- Unlimited provider connections
- Smart routing with explanations
- Usage, budgets & health dashboard
- Portable server-side context
Frequently asked questions
How are my API keys stored?
Keys are encrypted with AES-256-GCM using a server-side encryption key before being stored in Postgres. After creation, only a masked preview (like sk-…a1b2) is ever displayed. Raw keys are never sent to the browser and never logged.
Which providers are supported?
OpenAI and Anthropic today, via their official APIs and SDKs. The provider layer is modular, so more providers and gateways can be added without changing how routing works.
Can I connect my ChatGPT Plus or Claude Pro subscription?
Not yet — and honestly, not by our choice. Both providers currently restrict consumer subscriptions to their own apps: OpenAI offers no subscription sign-in for third-party tools, and Anthropic explicitly prohibits subscription OAuth outside its own products. PawRoute only uses official, permitted access — an API credential from your account, billed pay-as-you-go. If a provider opens an official subscription program for third-party apps, it will be added as a connection method.
Can I connect multiple accounts from the same provider?
Yes — that's the point. Connect separate keys for personal, work, client, project, research, production, or testing use, each with its own budgets, priority, model rules, and routing policy.
What context do you store?
Chat history and rolling summaries are stored server-side so a conversation can continue on any model without losing memory. Summaries keep long chats efficient instead of replaying the full history forever.
Does this bypass provider limits or subscriptions?
No. PawRoute only uses official APIs with keys you're authorized to use. It tracks and routes your own usage — it does not pool accounts, share credentials, or connect consumer ChatGPT/Claude subscriptions.
Can you show my exact remaining quota?
Not always — most provider APIs don't expose it. We precisely track everything sent through PawRoute and show budgets and estimates; anything we can't verify is labeled “unknown”, never invented.
