OpenRouter shows 25,000% spike in weekly token consumption since Jan 2025

The Decoder reports that OpenRouter’s weekly token consumption rose from about 0.5 trillion tokens in January 2025 to roughly 126.2 trillion tokens, a >25,000% increase. The piece cautions this mostly reflects inflated token metrics — e.g., reasoning/agentic models generating large 'thinking' token volumes and GPT-5.6 Luna producing many tokens per prompt — rather than a commensurate jump in end-user adoption or business value; OpenAI’s Astra leads revenue and some Chinese models (Kimi, GLM, DeepSeek) show fast growth from a small base.

Cohere releases North Mini Code — open-source 30B (3B active) agentic coding MoE model

Cohere has open-sourced North Mini Code, a mixture-of-experts agentic coding model sized at 30 billion parameters with 3 billion active, released under an Apache 2.0 license. The model — available on Hugging Face, OpenRouter, and Cohere's Model Vault in bf16, fp8 and w4a16 formats and compatible with OpenCode — is optimized for agentic developer workflows and reports a 33.4 score on the Artificial Analysis Coding Index, higher throughput (up to 2.8x) and ~30% better inter-token latency versus Devstral Small 2 in Cohere's tests.

SpaceXAI launches Grok 4.5, a model optimized for coding and agentic tasks

SpaceXAI says it has released Grok 4.5, its newest model trained alongside Cursor and optimized for coding, agentic workflows, and knowledge work. The company reports training across tens of thousands of NVIDIA GB300 GPUs, claims roughly 2× token efficiency versus leading models, 80 TPS serving speed, and priced the model at $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output tokens; Grok 4.5 is available in Grok Build, Cursor, and via the SpaceXAI console with limited free usage offered.
