Agent Router Service
For individual developers on the Service tier. Tetrate hosts Agent Router; no installation is required.
Coming from aigw run?
For users of the open source Agent Router on a laptop (aigw run), Agent Router Service is the hosted version of that endpoint. After signing up at router.tetrate.ai and creating an API key in the Developer Console, two values change in the client:
export OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.router.tetrate.ai/v1
export OPENAI_API_KEY=<your key from the Developer Console>
Request code does not change. Providers, fallbacks, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) profiles are set in the Developer Console instead of a config file. Tetrate supplies the provider keys, or customer keys are used with Bring Your Own Key (BYOK). Billing is pay as you go from a credit balance: the model's price plus a 5% routing fee. Eligible new users can claim bonus credits from the dashboard after sign-up.
For the open source project run in Kubernetes for several teams, see Agent Router Enterprise.
