Rule 1
Facts are read, not remembered
Prices, context windows and modalities come from the public catalogue and are re-checked by a scheduled drift check. Every data page states the date its numbers were verified.
About
Who runs this site, and how it decides what is true
Hunter Alpha Hub is an independent reference for models on OpenRouter, run by a small independent team. It is not affiliated with OpenRouter, with any model provider, or with any other company named on the site.
What this site is for
Two jobs. First, a durable reference for picking a model: pricing, context window, modality and the workloads each model actually suits, read from the public OpenRouter catalogue rather than copied from a press release. Second, a record of the anonymous Alpha releases — what each one claimed, what it turned out to be, and when its free window closed.
The second job has a short shelf life by design: a codename is a marketing device with an expiry date. The first one is why the site keeps going after each reveal.
How we decide what to publish
Rule 2
Claims are labelled
Community findings, vendor statements and our own inferences are marked as claims with their source. A claim never appears in a field that is otherwise a verified fact.
Rule 3
Uncertainty is printed
Where something could not be verified, the page says so instead of filling the gap with a plausible number. "Unknown" is a legitimate value here.
How the site is funded
Advertising. Ads never influence what is published, which models are recommended, or the order of any list; nothing on this site is a paid placement. If that ever changes, the page it changes on will say so where the content is.
Corrections
If a number here is wrong, we want to know — a wrong price is worse than no price. Email privacy@hunteralphahub.com with the URL and what we got wrong, and we will fix the page and note the date it changed.
