Benchmarks

Reference scores published by the model's authors, not measured on ThaiRouter. Live numbers appear once the model is serving.

No published benchmark breakdown yet. Scores appear here as they are released.

API

Served through its own OpenAI-style endpoint, not chat completions.

Planned endpoint

https://api.thairouter.ai/v1/images/generations

Same API key, same credit balance, same no-training and no-storage guarantee as every text model. Request shape follows the OpenAI equivalent so existing SDK calls work; per-output pricing is announced at launch.
