· Budget (Jun 2026)OpenRouter Fusion (Budget preset, June 2026 snapshot) turns a single prompt into a multi-model deliberation using cheaper panel members. A panel — Gemini 3 Flash, DeepSeek V3.2, and Kimi K2.7 Code — analyzes the prompt in parallel with web search and web fetch enabled, then a judge model (Gemini 3 Flash) synthesizes their answers into one response, weighing consensus, contradictions, partial coverage, unique insights, and blind spots. Because it runs every panel member plus a judge, a request is priced as the sum of those completions — far less than the Quality panel. Reach for Fusion when a single model isn't enough but cost matters. The panel drifts over time; this is the June 2026 snapshot.
OpenRouter Fusion isn't a single model. Your prompt fans out to a panel of 3 models running in parallel with web search and web fetch, and a judge synthesizes their answers into one response. The panel drifts over time, so this page is the Jun 2026 snapshot.
Routed via openrouter/fusion. Each request runs every panel member plus the judge, so it's priced as the sum of those completions rather than a single model.
