I thought your numbers must be wrong.

So I plugged 288 trillion tokens/month (OpenRouter's current rate), 500 billion MoE model average, and the math comes out to be around 620 B200 GPUs minimum.

So basically, OpenRouter's volume must be absolutely tiny compared to the volume hyperscalers are getting.

It is worth mentioning, the OpenRouter demand isn't static though. It has increased week on week since early 2026.

I was curious so I looked it up: looks like a GB300 NVL72 is about $4M. So $22B would buy you 5500 such racks, no?

GPU cost is about half of datacenter cost. Other half is cooling, power and networking.
