OpenRouter alternatives that do not refuse
If you are here because OpenRouter stopped mid-answer, the thing you want is the same routing convenience with a catalogue curated down to the models that do not refuse. MagmaRouter carries 7 such models on one OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
What OpenRouter is, and where it stops
OpenRouter does not moderate on its own account: it passes your request to whichever provider serves the model, and that provider's policy applies. Its catalogue is enormous but the uncensored and abliterated builds are a very small corner of it.
Other options people compare with OpenRouter
| Option | What it is |
|---|---|
| Together AI | Large catalogue of mainstream open-weight models, per token on serverless or on dedicated endpoints, plus fine-tuning. |
| DeepInfra | One of the cheaper per-token hosts for open-weight models, with a wide catalogue that changes as models are added and retired. |
| Featherless | Flat monthly subscription over tens of thousands of open Hugging Face models, hundreds of them abliterated or uncensored, hosted by Featherless itself. |
| Venice AI | Privacy-first host with its own uncensored models and media generation, sold per token or through its app plans. |
| Novita AI | Low-cost open-weight host, including some uncensored builds, on its own infrastructure. |

What MagmaRouter carries instead
MagmaRouter sells 7 uncensored models on one OpenAI-compatible endpoint, every one able to call tools. Ordered for this particular job rather than by a single ranking: GLM 5.3 Flash Xploded leads because it is the cheapest of the set on output at $1.00 per million tokens. GLM 5.3 Xploded closes the table as the strongest of the set on the Intelligence Index.

Switching takes one base URL
Anything that speaks the OpenAI chat completions format works unchanged. Point it here, use a MagmaRouter key, and name the model from the table.
curl https://api.magmarouter.com/v1/chat/completions \ -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-mr-..." \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "model": "glm-5.3-flash-xploded", "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}] }'
FAQ
Is MagmaRouter actually uncensored, or does it just say so?
MagmaRouter does not moderate requests. It prices the call, holds the money against your key cap and passes the request to the model. What comes back is whatever that model does: an uncensored build refuses far less than a frontier model but can still decline, and only an abliterated build has the refusal direction removed outright. Neither tag is a promise that any given answer will arrive.
What does it cost compared with OpenRouter?
You pay per token at the rates in the table above, with no subscription. $0.30 in and $1.00 out per million tokens for GLM 5.3 Flash Xploded.
Can I cap what a key is allowed to spend?
Yes, and the cap is enforced before the model runs rather than reconciled afterwards. The reply cannot physically cost more than the hold placed before it was sent.
Will it work with my existing client?
If the client takes an OpenAI-compatible base URL, yes: point it at https://api.magmarouter.com/v1 with a MagmaRouter key. Claude Code and the Anthropic SDKs use the Anthropic format, which is served too.
