🤝 Stripe Snaps Up AI Model Router OpenRouter for Over $7 Billion
Payment giant Stripe is acquiring OpenRouter — the hub that lets developers pick from 400+ AI models including Claude, GPT-4, and Gemini — for more than $7 billion, a massive markup from its $1.3B valuation just months ago. OpenRouter serves around 8 million developers and processed roughly 1.5 quadrillion tokens over the past year. The deal positions Stripe to own the billing and model-routing layer powering the agent economy. Will this change how developers choose their AI stack?
