成本差距擴大，中國模型在OpenRouter流量佔比達46%
中國模型在OpenRouter上的週流量佔比超過30%，從去年的11%上升，Lindy等初創公司從Claude轉向DeepSeek以節省數百萬成本。
chinese ai models from deepseek and z.ai have surged on openrouter, consistently exceeding 30% of weekly traffic since february and hitting 46% peaks, compared to an 11% average in 2023. openrouter reports these open-source models run 60-90% cheaper than us alternatives, prompting startups like lindy to migrate entire workloads from claude to deepseek. despite chinese models trailing us leaders by 6-9 months in benchmarks, the massive price arbitrage is driving adoption. this trend signals that enterprise buyers are prioritizing cost efficiency over marginal capability gains.
