Terms & Responsibility
Routeplane is a local-first OpenAI-compatible router that runs on your machine and forwards requests to AI providers using credentials you supply. It does not store keys, log prompts, or operate shared infrastructure.
Routeplane is not a marketplace, proxy pool, or multi-tenant service. Your keys stay on your machine. Your calls are made directly from your environment. Routeplane does not resell, redistribute, or pool provider quotas.
