the catalog
Frontier models, lower effective cost.
Same official endpoints. Same outputs. Metered against the official rate — then handed to you at a fraction of it.
No models match that filter.
Pricing is the official API rate — that's what RedRoute meters against.
Plans give you that credit at 50–80% off.
All endpoints live at https://redroute.pro/v1.
