Netlify reprices dozens of OpenRouter models in AI Gateway, catalog grows to ~167
Netlify's AI Gateway repriced multiple OpenRouter-routed models by double digits (DeepSeek, Kimi, Qwen) and grew the catalog from ~161 to ~167 models, while its own plan prices stayed flat.

Netlify’s AI features pricing docs (docs.netlify.com) showed widespread repricing across the OpenRouter-routed portion of its AI Gateway catalog between the 2026-08-25 and 2026-08-26 captures. Several already-listed models moved by more than 10%: deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-0731 input fell from $0.07 to $0.03 and output from $0.18 to $0.08 per 1M tokens (roughly halved); deepseek/deepseek-v4-pro-0813 output fell from $3.96 to $2.60 while cache-read rose from $0.04 to $0.10; moonshotai/kimi-k2.6 output rose from $2.47 to $3.39; qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-thinking-2507 input rose from $0.23 to $0.30 and output from $2.30 to $3.00; and xiaomi/mimo-v2.5-pro output fell from $1.50 to $1.17.
The catalog also churned: 11 models were added (nine new Mistral models — codestral-2508, devstral-2512, ministral-3b/8b/14b-2512, mistral-large-2512, mistral-medium-3/3.1/3-5 — plus tencent/hy-mt2-7b and upstage/solar-pro4) and 5 were removed (deepcogito/cogito-v2.1-671b, google/gemma-3n-e4b-it, inclusionai/ling-2.6-1t, inclusionai/ling-2.6-flash, inclusionai/ring-2.6-1t), taking the roughly 161-model OpenRouter lineup to roughly 167. Every OpenRouter model still bills through Netlify’s identical 180-credits-per-$1 AI inference meter, so these are real, bill-relevant moves for any team routing traffic to the repriced models — even though Netlify’s own plan prices (Free $0, Personal $9, Pro $20, Enterprise Custom) and the 180-credits-per-$1 conversion were unchanged. Sampled Anthropic, Gemini, and OpenAI rates also held steady. Source: docs.netlify.com AI features pricing page (screenshot diff, 2026-08-25 vs 2026-08-26 captures).
One day after OpenRouter's AI Gateway debut, Netlify's docs showed a broad catalog reprice: deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-0731 fell roughly in half (input $0.07→$0.03, output $0.18→$0.08 per 1M tokens), deepseek/deepseek-v4-pro-0813 output fell ($3.96→$2.60) while its cache-read rose ($0.04→$0.10), moonshotai/kimi-k2.6 output rose ($2.47→$3.39), qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-thinking-2507 input/output rose ($0.23→$0.30 / $2.30→$3.00), and xiaomi/mimo-v2.5-pro output fell ($1.50→$1.17). The catalog also churned from roughly 161 to roughly 167 models — 11 added (nine new Mistral models plus tencent/hy-mt2-7b and upstage/solar-pro4), 5 removed. Netlify's own plan prices (Free/Personal/Pro/Enterprise) and the 180-credits-per-$1 conversion were unchanged.
