Auto Router
Analysis Summary
Auto Router is a routing product rather than a single measured language model. Its record lists a 2M-token context window, text, image, file, audio, and video inputs, image-capable output, vision, tool use, and function calling. Pricing is recorded as negative values, so the cost posture cannot be interpreted reliably from the supplied data.
The broad interface makes it relevant to document-heavy agents, multimodal intake, and workflows that need to direct requests across models. However, there are no independent reasoning, coding, content, or reliability benchmarks attached to the router itself. Design for Online could test it as orchestration infrastructure, but should not make it the unverified primary model for client-facing generation until routing quality, latency, and fallback behaviour are measured.

Editorial notes
Auto Router offers a 2M context window, multimodal input, vision, tools, and function calling, making it useful as a routing layer, but it has no independent benchmark data and no transparent model-level pricing.

How Auto Router compares
Its 2M-token context window is larger than 100% of the models we list. At $-1,000,000.00 per million input tokens it is cheaper than 100% of comparable models.
Dark bar = input · light bar = output, scaled to the priciest peer.
1M tokens ≈ 8 full-length novels or ~2,500 pages of business documents in a single request.
Strongest on business fit. The pulled-in value corner is the trade-off, and if the shape matters more than the price, this is your model.
