Model Usagetencent/hy3-preview holds #1 · biggest mover: openrouter/owl-alpha +26 to #16 · biggest drop: openai/gpt-5.4-nano -18

+26

openrouter/owl-alpha

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.
