I had to move to Kimi K2.6 because Claude models are too expensive to use. BYK from OpenRouter. I have not tested GLM models.
As they stop subsidizing, everything is going to get more and more expensive until they price everyone out. If they are actually “selling shovels for a gold rush,” they are cooked. A lot of companies can’t afford to use Ai heavily anymore. Customers are going to dry up.
Exactly. It’s hilarious just couple days back our ceo pulled 4 devs out and congratulated us on spending 2k a month each and apparently blowing company limit, I’m now tasked with finding alternatives hahaha. Definitely openrouter and kimi 2.7 and glm 5.2 are on my roadmap. I will need to do a presentation for ceo
I am surprised that anyone who can make decisions realized the June Ai bill was going to be crazy. I was betting it would take until July, when the crazy June bill is charged, for companies to realize they can’t afford frontier models.
We are looking into open router and kimi 2.7, mimo, glm 5.2 models.
You can still use opus/sonnet models all the same, they are just wicked expensive.
There are tools like opencode and kilocode for coding.
