WHY THIS SIGNAL MATTERS
Tracks the cheapest published API price for an advanced-class model as a proxy for the commoditization of frontier-level capability. 'Advanced-class' is a keyword heuristic, and listed prices may differ from real-world or native-provider costs.
KNOWN LIMITATIONS
- 'Advanced-class' uses id-keyword heuristic, not formal benchmark gating
- OpenRouter prices may differ from native provider pricing
- Excludes rate-limit tiers, commitment discounts, and self-hosted options

METHODOLOGY
Lowest published input token price (USD per 1 million tokens) among advanced-class models in OpenRouter's catalog. Advanced-class is determined by id-keyword heuristic matching frontier model families (GPT-4/5, Claude 3+/4+, Gemini 1.5+, Llama 3+, DeepSeek V3+, Qwen 2.5+). Reflects the commoditization frontier for frontier-class capability.
