Summary

The OpenRouter API has introduced a web search feature that allows developers to integrate real-time web search results into their workflows by appending :online to model slugs or activating a web plugin. Priced at $4 per 1,000 results and defaulting to five results per request, it utilizes Exa.ai to fetch and summarize web data, which is then incorporated into user prompts with markdown-cited sources. This feature is customizable, enabling developers to adjust the number of results and tailor prompts for result integration. It can be activated by appending :online to model slugs or using the web plugin in API requests, with further details available in the documentation or via OpenRouter Chat by selecting the 'web' icon.
