A Quebec AI gateway, with an anti-exfiltration Guard and billing in Canadian dollars.
Router is an AI gateway and an LLM gateway. It powers Meridian, and it is also sold on its own. It is a drop-in replacement for OpenAI, with more than 40 models behind one API, a Guard that strips personal information and secrets before anything is sent, automatic failover, hosting in Quebec, and billing in Canadian dollars. It is an OpenRouter alternative when the invoice has to be in CAD.

Try RouterThe problem
Putting AI into an application means juggling an API key per provider, watching rate limits, keeping sensitive data from leaking to a third-party model, and paying five USD invoices a month. When a provider goes down, your product goes down with it.
The answer
Router replaces api.openai.com with one URL that routes across more than 40 models (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Mistral, Cohere). Guard removes sensitive information before the request is sent. If a model or a provider fails, it fails over automatically. One monthly bill, in Canadian dollars.
Features
Change the URL in the code you already have. Works with curl, npm, and pip, with no refactor. Your current stack keeps running as it is.
Personal information, secrets, .env variables, and tokens are filtered out before a request goes to an external model. Sensitive data does not leave your servers.
Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, Google Gemini, Cohere, Mistral, and open models. One API, kept up to date.
When a model or a provider is down or rate-limited, Router switches to a compatible alternative. Callers do not see the downtime.
One monthly invoice in Canadian dollars. Usage pricing or a monthly plan. No exchange-rate surprise and no conversion fee.
Logs, traces, and metrics in real time for every request. See who used what, at what cost, and at what latency.
