What changed
The OpenRouter row on
docs/free-tiers.mdsaid the 50-requests-a-day free-model limit applies to "a key with no credits". OpenRouter's documentation says the limit is per account, and the tier is chosen by the credits purchased all time: under $10 is 50 a day, $10 or more is 1,000 a day (20 a minute either way). A new key therefore does not reset it. The row now says so and links OpenRouter's limits page.Why
This page was added in #10 and the wording was wrong. Found while preparing an article on free-tier behavior and re-reading the source: https://openrouter.ai/docs/api-reference/limits
Testing
