deepseek/deepseek-v4-pro

was #18 on 2026-05-03

OpenRouter request volume reflects developer API spending, not end-user adoption. Biased toward API-first workflows that route through OpenRouter — direct OpenAI / Anthropic / Google customers who never use OpenRouter are invisible.

Tool Health

2 incidents in the last 24h (vs 8 yesterday)

Why this matters · Provider outages and degradations cause retry storms upstream. Tracking the 7-day shape catches flapping providers before they page you.

Tool health, 7 days ending 2026-05-10: daily 04:00 UTC snapshot per tool. Green operational, amber degraded, red outage, grey no data.
