OpenRouter Alternative

More than just a router — a full AI infrastructure platform.

Lexora gives you the unified model API you want from OpenRouter, plus free knowledge bases, distributed inference, and no idle GPU costs. One platform, one bill.

Unified API for top models

Qwen3, DeepSeek V4, Kimi 2.7, FLUX — all behind one OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Switch models with a single string.

Free RAG knowledge bases

Upload PDFs, build chatbots grounded in your documents. OpenRouter only routes — Lexora actually hosts your data and embeddings.

Hosted, not just routed

Hosted Qwen3 8B, BGE-M3 embeddings, and FLUX Schnell run on our distributed network — no third-party markup on the core models.

Pay only when you use it

No idle GPU costs, no minimums. $1 signup credit, then pay-as-you-go from $0.10 per million tokens.

How simple it looks

Drop-in OpenAI-compatible API. No special SDK.

Python
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
  base_url="https://api.lexora.network/v1",
  api_key="YOUR_LEXORA_KEY",
)

# Hosted model — runs on Lexora's distributed network
resp = client.chat.completions.create(
  model="Qwen/Qwen3-8B",
  messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Summarize the attached doc"}],
  extra_body={"kb_id": "kb_your_documents"},   # Grounded in your KB
)
print(resp.choices[0].message.content)
