Birouter - AI Router & Token Saver
Never stop coding. Save 20-40% tokens with RTK + auto-fallback to FREE & cheap AI models.
Connect All AI Code Tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity, Copilot, Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, Cline, OpenClaw...) to 40+ AI Providers & 100+ Models.
🤔 Why Birouter?
Stop wasting money, tokens and hitting limits:
- ❌ Subscription quota expires unused every month
- ❌ Rate limits stop you mid-coding
- ❌ Tool outputs (git diff, grep, ls...) burn tokens fast
- ❌ Expensive APIs ($20-50/month per provider)
Birouter solves this:
- ✅ RTK Token Saver - Auto-compress tool_result, save 20-40% tokens
- ✅ Maximize subscriptions - Track quota, use every bit before reset
- ✅ Auto fallback - Subscription → Cheap → Free, zero downtime
- ✅ Multi-account - Round-robin between accounts per provider
- ✅ Universal - Works with any OpenAI/Claude-compatible CLI
