Providers serving this model
Sorted by lowest combined prompt and completion price. Use
"provider": {"sort": "throughput"} in the request body
(or append :nitro to the model id) to route to the
fastest provider instead.
Trust boundary: TR router attestation verifies the TrustedRouter gateway only. Provider policy separately describes the upstream model host's retention, confidential compute, and E2EE posture.
