Eden AI is a solid product and it’s good that there are alternatives to OpenRouter out there.

We don’t brand ourselves as such, but if you’re looking for a European OpenRouter alternative focusing on media models (image, video etc.), I‘ve built that with https://lumenfall.ai

i would use this, but for the privacy issues:

- no zero data retention available for the router itself (rights to retain data flagged by content scanning).

- no stated privacy policies for the providers served on the api. quote: "we work with providers to understand their policies and can provide information about specific providers on request".

on openrouter, on the positive side, they have transparent retention agreements for almost all providers, and also offer zdr.

i wish there will be a time where privacy is for everyone, not just for people who can afford an enterprise sla

> You pay providers directly. We charge nothing extra.

How is it sustainable?

We have direct relationships with providers and get volume discounts.

Besides that, we‘ll introduce paid plans with additional features like observability soon.
