Ramp, a corporate expense management platform, has launched Router, a new AI model routing service. This service allows users to switch among various large language models via an API. The service is currently only available in the United States and free for the rest of 2026, though users must pay for AI model inference costs. A $26 credit is offered at launch.

  • Service Features:

    • Access to AI models from companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, Moonshot, Minimax, Nvidia, xAI, and Z.ai.
    • Offers strategies for AI request routing based on user preferences.
    • Provides operational metrics via a user dashboard.
    • Features an opt-out data retention policy to remove personally identifiable information before improvement use.

  • Strategic Opportunities for Ramp:

    • Entry into the booming AI inference market complements its existing product line.
    • Potential to develop long-standing relationships with AI labs and inference providers globally.
    • Aims to attract new customers for its expense management products.

Ramp sees the move as a strategic opportunity to cement its position in the AI market and expand its offerings to existing financial services clients.
