We’re excited to announce that Backboard now connects developers to over 2,200 large language models (LLMs) through a single API, making it the most flexible, cost-efficient, and future-proof AI stack available today.

By integrating major networks like OpenRouter, Featherless, and Frontiers, we’ve unified access to nearly every major model on the market, from OpenAI and Anthropic to Mistral, Meta, and beyond. Whether you’re building chatbots, copilots, or complex agent workflows, Backboard lets you mix, match, and route across models seamlessly.

Why This Matters

Most platforms lock you into a single model or vendor. That means higher costs, slower updates, and limited innovation. Backboard changes that by giving developers complete control over their AI stack.

With multi-model routing, you can automatically choose the best model for each task, optimizing for speed, accuracy, or cost in real time. For example, you might use a smaller, faster model for everyday tasks and a more powerful one for complex reasoning, all through the same API key.

One Platform, Every Model

Our growing network now includes:

• OpenRouter – Access to top-tier frontier models like GPT-4o, Claude 3.5, and Gemini 2.5

• Featherless – Lightweight and efficient open models for fast, inexpensive tasks

• Frontiers – Cutting-edge performance for reasoning and long-context workloads

And we’re just getting started. More providers and models are being added every month.

Built for Builders

Developers can get started instantly with $10 in free credits and see how easy it is to build, test, and deploy stateful AI systems using memory, RAG, and our upcoming portable memory layer. Once onboarded, you’ll find your costs are up to 80% lower than comparable AI platforms.

The Future: Unified, Affordable, and Smart

AI shouldn’t be limited by access or price. With Backboard, developers and businesses can now build the AI they imagine, on their terms. One platform, every model, and the memory to make it all come alive.
