Previously, Manus Flex did not support OpenRouter. Now you can add your own API key in Flex and choose a model for AI agents.
Three partners. OpenRouter, Fireworks AI, and Modal are launching in the Manus Flex program. They expand the range of inference providers available through Flex.
Pricing depends on the model. OpenRouter requires an account, Credits, and an API key. OpenRouter passes through provider pricing without markup and charges a separate small fee when purchasing Credits. After the free allowance, keys from major providers through BYOK cost 5% more than equivalent inference on OpenRouter (OpenRouter rules, Dec 20, 2024).
The Manus Flex program already has three launch partners: OpenRouter, Fireworks AI, and Modal.
