this happens after upgrading to v0.1.4? do you have a screenshot?
we deprecated models.json and it should have migrated from your models.json and then you can edit it in the dashboard, this wasn’t the case?
we don’t have a privacy policy because we don’t store/read any data, you can check the source code
maybe we should just add it to say that
the benefit over open router is that the payment layer is completely anonymous so even if a malicious provider collects data, he doesn’t see any users so every request is separated and also can’t be linked to any particular person except you put precisely identifying information into your prompt
we’re also working on a local version that prechecks your requests and straps out identifying information automatically
Routstr Core v0.1.4 live now on api.routstr.com
oh shouldn’t be like this fix asap

routstr-core v0.1.3 is live:
https://github.com/routstr/routstr-core/releases/tag/v0.1.3
biggest improvement is we could reduce the minimum required amount per request by dynamically checking the length of given prompt and also considering max_tokens
now you can make a simple request to gpt-5 with just a single satoshi:
curl -i -X POST https://api.routstr.com/v1/chat/completions -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer cashuBo2FteBx...czovL21" -d '{"model": "openai/gpt-5", "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "what is ecash"}], "max_tokens": 64}'

they are:
- centralized
- only support shitcoins
- explicitly no bitcoin
- marketplace only for "partners"
- email required and kyc for high rate limits
we’re fixing this by using nostr, cashu and building everything open source
nostr:nevent1qqstvkenlssge6z79422xa6trz3jv3rnqsx7098d9dn6fn7l0j9mz7g523tnl
going to try to add nostr:npub130mznv74rxs032peqym6g3wqavh472623mt3z5w73xq9r6qqdufs7ql29s and nostr:npub16g4umvwj2pduqc8kt2rv6heq2vhvtulyrsr2a20d4suldwnkl4hquekv4h support to https://github.com/damus-io/notedeck/tree/master/crates/notedeck_dave and see what is easiest to integrate.
there are multiple ways to implement routstr
using api keys from the setting in the chat app is the easiest and similar to ppq
using a cashu wallet and cycling tokens for every request is the best for privacy and self custody but more complicated, we’ll release an sdk soon
