OpenLLM
In short: OpenLLM is a freemium coding AI tool. Local routing layer that pools your Claude, Codex, Cursor, Kimi, Grok and local (Ollama/LM Studio) subscriptions and API keys, then keeps coding agents going when one hits a limit. Free tier includes inference and shared memory across agents; Mac app or one-line install. Launched on Product Hunt around Oct 28. Overlaps with SeedRouter and BestLLMFor; the pitch is fallback chains plus shared memory without rewriting each tool's config. X Buzz Score: 41/100 (133 posts in 7 days).

Use this if you juggle several LLM subscriptions for Claude Code/Codex and want automatic fallback mid-task without pasting keys into every client.

Alternatives
- SeedRouter: Prepaid multi-model API: one key for image, video and language models (Seedance, Nano Banana, GPT Image, Kling, Claude, GPT-6 and more). Pay only for delivered results from a USD balance—no subscription, failed requests free. Docs, llms.txt per model, and guides for Claude Code/Codex/ComfyUI/n8n.
- BestLLMFor: Free local-LLM guide from Paris: tell it your GPU/VRAM or Mac and it shortlists open models and the quantization (Q4/Q5/Q8) that will actually fit, backed by 250+ indexed models, measured tokens/sec and Ollama/LM Studio guides. Optional paid setup kits ($24, or $49 for all).
- Claude Code: Terminal-based coding agent that edits and runs your repo.

- Claude: Excellent for long documents, writing and careful coding help.
- Nativ: Free, MIT-licensed Mac app from Neywa Labs (founder Prince Canuma, the maker of mlx-vlm) that runs open models locally on Apple Silicon: chat with image input, a local API server for agents and dev tools, and live tokens/sec and memory stats. Launched Oct 27 as Neywa Labs came out of stealth. Private and offline once a model is downloaded; Apple Silicon only, and what you can run depends on your Mac's RAM.
- Kimi: Moonshot AI's assistant, now running Kimi K3.1 Pro (released Oct 23, 2026): a 2.8T-parameter open-weight MoE with a 1M-token context, strong at long coding sessions, agent tasks and 3D/Blender work at a low cost per task. Use it free in the Kimi web/app or via Kimi Code and the API. ~11k X posts in a week; claims of matching top US models still need independent checks.
