OpenRouter Discounts Trigger 13.8x GPT-5.6 Token Surge
Discounts on GPT-5.6 Terra and Luna models produced a sharp rise in token use on OpenRouter.
TLDR
OpenRouter discounted GPT-5.6 Terra and Luna models. Token consumption across those models rose 13.8 times after the price cuts. User scaling01 noted the $5 per million tokens rate available through the flex API for GPT-5.6-Sol and said more benchmarks would follow. Greg Brockman replied to the OpenRouter post that the outcome illustrates Jevons Paradox. The packet records these statements from the linked posts but contains no independent confirmation of the usage figures.
