Openrouter routing Deepseek V4 via NovitaAI even at cheapest-first setting
Deepseek offers their model via openrouter at near 1/10th the cost, but even with all settings to allow Deepseek as provider (data usage concerns setting), it still chooses NovitaAI. Now at a 10% premium or whatever this would be whatever behaviour, NovitaAI is slightly faster, but not by that much.
But at a 10x premium? Why would it even use anything but Deepseek as provider?
Fixed it by using a whitelist and only allowing deepseek as provider, suddenly I was losing cents per hour instead of dollars. This shouldn't happen in my opinion.
