> Are you buying from a provider that isn't listed on open router already
I am using openrouter with zdr guardrail which routes to any provider that supposedly doesnt train on user data. I also use fireworks (directly, not via openrouter) which is a provider promising zdr and has a bunch of open weights models. My issue is that these zdr providers dont transparently disclose caching/tokens etc and so they end up being far more expensive than directly using DS.

OpenRouter doesn’t list DeepSeek as ZDR combined with Caching. Thanks for the tip of Fireworks as Fireworks has Zero Data Retention by default. [1]
