AI fallback providers

If our main AI providers (Anthropic and OpenAI) fail, a request can be answered by a fallback provider instead: OpenRouter, DeepSeek, Moonshot AI or Alibaba Cloud (Qwen). DeepSeek and Moonshot AI process data in China; the Qwen service we call is Alibaba Cloud's international endpoint in Singapore. A request sent to a fallback carries the same content as the original request.

What AI providers may keep

Per each provider's published API terms:

  • Anthropic, PBC: Its commercial terms say it does not train models on API inputs and outputs; it deletes them within 30 days, longer only to enforce its usage policy or where the law requires.
  • OpenAI, L.L.C.: Its API data policy says API inputs are not used to train its models; abuse-monitoring logs, which can include prompts and responses, are kept for up to 30 days.
  • OpenRouter, Inc.: Every request we send asks OpenRouter to route only to model providers that do not collect (store or train on) request data; if none is available the request fails instead.
  • Perplexity AI, Inc.: Its API documentation says the Sonar API keeps no request content (zero data retention) and does not use it for training.
  • DeepSeek (Hangzhou DeepSeek Artificial Intelligence Co., Ltd.): Its published terms and privacy policy allow it to use inputs to improve and train its services, and it stores data in China.
  • Moonshot AI (Beijing Moonshot AI Technology Co., Ltd.): Its published platform terms do not say that API inputs are excluded from training; it processes data in China.
  • Alibaba Cloud (Qwen models, DashScope international service): Its Model Studio terms say it does not use customer data for model training; they do not state how long requests are kept.
