Playground

Try OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and 200+ other models directly in the OrcaRouter playground. No credit card required; sign in to save sessions, compare models side-by-side, and inspect the routing decision and per-token cost for every request.

What you can do

Send a prompt to any of 200+ frontier and open-weights models without writing any code or installing an SDK.
Switch model in one click to compare outputs without rewriting the prompt.
See the live token cost, latency, and chosen upstream provider for every request.
Save sessions, share links, and export conversations as JSON, Markdown, or OpenAI-compatible request payloads.

When to use the playground

The playground is the fastest path from "I read about a new model" to "I have a feel for whether it solves my problem". Useful for prompt iteration before you wire a model into a production application, for spec-style A/B comparisons across vendors, and for confirming that a given model handles your domain (long documents, code, multilingual, etc.) before you commit to integration work.
