Models & aliases
Everything you can pass as `model` — concrete aliases, industry tags, strategy hints, and auto.
The model field is the steering wheel. You can name a model directly, or hand
the choice to the router with a tag, a strategy, or auto. Every form resolves
through the same routing pipeline.
What you can pass as model
Concrete alias
A specific model from the curated set below: gpt-4o, claude-3-5-sonnet,
gemini-flash-latest, Qwen/Qwen3-32B-AWQ, … Forwarded to the backend
that serves it.
Industry tag
industry:legal, industry:healthcare, industry:code, … — the router
picks the curated best model for that domain and falls through a priority
list if your top pick is offline.
Strategy hint
strategy:cost, strategy:quality, strategy:latency, strategy:local —
route by intent rather than name. See Routing.
Auto
auto — a balanced default. The classifier inspects the prompt and routes
to the best model for the task, so you can ship once and let us tune.
Industry tags
| Tag | Tuned for |
|---|---|
industry:legal | Contracts, citations, careful nuance |
industry:healthcare | Clinical Q&A, polite refusals |
industry:finance | Quantitative reasoning, numeric reliability |
industry:code | Code generation, debugging, refactors |
industry:creative | Long-form writing, brand voice |
industry:support | Fast, polite, tool-aware |
industry:sales | Lead enrichment, outreach drafts |
industry:data | SQL, dataframes, chart reasoning |
industry:education | Step-by-step tutoring |
industry:general | Balanced default |
The curated set
Nyuro runs a deliberately small, curated roster rather than a long tail: the frontier models from OpenAI, Anthropic and Google, plus open-weight models we host ourselves on RunPod. Every model below is routable today.
Frontier models
| Alias | Provider | Tier | Context | $/Mtok in | $/Mtok out |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
gpt-4o | OpenAI | quality | 128K | 5.00 | 15.00 |
gpt-4o-mini | OpenAI | cost | 128K | 0.15 | 0.60 |
claude-3-5-sonnet | Anthropic | quality | 200K | 3.00 | 15.00 |
claude-3-5-haiku | Anthropic | cost | 200K | 0.80 | 4.00 |
gemini-pro-latest | balanced | 1M | 1.25 | 10.00 | |
gemini-flash-latest | cost | 1M | 0.30 | 2.50 |
All six support tool calling. gpt-4o and both Gemini models also support
vision; claude-3-5-sonnet is the one carrying the code capability.
Open-weight models we host
Served from our own RunPod deployment, so there is no third-party provider in the path and no per-token provider meter:
| Alias | Family | Tier | Use |
|---|---|---|---|
Qwen/Qwen3-32B-AWQ | Qwen 3 | balanced | General chat, quantized for throughput |
Qwen/Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507 | Qwen 3 (MoE) | balanced | General chat, instruction-tuned |
ibm-granite/granite-4.0-h-small | IBM Granite 4 | balanced | General chat |
Qwen/Qwen3-Embedding-0.6B | Qwen 3 | cost | Embeddings — /v1/embeddings and collections |
Qwen/Qwen3-Embedding-0.6B is the embedding model, not a chat model — pass
it to /v1/embeddings, not /v1/chat/completions. It produces 1024-dimension
vectors and is the model backing managed collections.
Discovering models programmatically
Two endpoints, for two different questions:
# What can I route to right now? (needs the models.read scope)
curl https://api.routing.nyuro.ai/v1/models \
-H "Authorization: Bearer nyu_live_…"
# Full catalog with pricing, capabilities and latency
curl https://api.routing.nyuro.ai/api/v1/catalog/modelsThe catalog is larger than the routable set
/api/v1/catalog/models returns thousands of entries enriched from the
upstream registry, but only the curated models above carry
"routable": true. Filter on that flag — naming a non-routable catalog entry
will not route. /v1/models returns the routable set directly.
Open-weight & self-hosted models
Concrete aliases can also cover models you host yourself. Configure an
OLLAMA_BASE_URL or VLLM_BASE_URL on the gateway and those models join the
catalog alongside the curated set — including under strategy:local. See
BYOK & local models.
Onboarding
Everything an application needs to integrate with Nyuro end to end — one key, one base URL, and the three request shapes for chat, embeddings, and media generation.
Routing & strategies
How Nyuro picks a model — auto classification, strategy hints, fallback chains, and the transparency headers that tell you what happened.
