AI Model Comparison App Built with MagicPath
By

Comparing models is hard, so I built a little app where you can compare any model you want.
— Pietro Schirano (@skirano) 23 juillet 2025
All you need is the @OpenRouterAI API.
You can compare up to four models and even have a dedicated system prompt for each.
