Title: Show HN: A3M Router — #1 on RouterArena, open-source LLM router
2+
3+
We built an open-source LLM router at https://github.com/Das-rebel/a3m-router and it just scored #1 on the official RouterArena benchmark (76.43) — beating Microsoft Azure (71.87), OpenAI GPT-5 (64.32), and every other commercial and academic router.
4+
5+
The secret: parallel multi-LLM execution. Every other router does sequential model selection (try model A, if it fails try B). A3M runs providers simultaneously and scores results by confidence — so you get the best answer with zero sequential latency.
6+
7+
RouterArena results:
8+
- A3M Router: 76.43 at $0.047/1K queries
9+
- Sqwish (#2): 75.27 at $0.18/1K (4x more expensive)
10+
- Azure-Model-Router: 71.87
11+
- NotDiamond: 57.29
12+
- RouteLLM (Berkeley): 48.07
13+
14+
Also fully open-source — run it yourself:
15+
npx a3m-router route "your query"
16+

🧵 THREAD: A3M Router just became #1 on the official RouterArena benchmark.
2+
3+
We beat Microsoft Azure, OpenAI GPT-5, NotDiamond, and RouteLLM (Berkeley).
4+
5+
Here's what happened and why it matters:
6+
7+
---
8+
9+
1/ RouterArena is the standardized benchmark for LLM routing systems.
10+
- 8,400 queries across 9 domains
11+
- Measures accuracy, cost, optimality, robustness
12+
- Open-source, peer-reviewed (arxiv.org/abs/2510.00202)
13+
14+

15+
16+
2/ The leaderboard:
17+
18+
🥇 A3M Router — 76.43 at $0.047/1K
19+
🥈 Sqwish — 75.27 at $0.18/1K
20+
🥉 Azure-Model-Router (Microsoft) — 71.87
21+
GPT-5 (OpenAI) — 64.32 at $10.02/1K
22+
RouteLLM (Berkeley) — 48.07
23+
24+
---
25+
26+
3/ The secret: parallel ensemble execution.
27+
28+
Every other router tries ONE model at a time. If it fails, try the next.
29+
30+
A3M runs multiple providers simultaneously, scores each response by confidence, and returns the best.
31+
32+
This is why we're #1 AND cheapest.
33+
34+
---
35+
36+
4/ A3M is fully open-source:
37+
- 47+ providers
38+
- 19.5 KB, zero ML dependencies
39+
- npm install -g adaptive-memory-multi-model-router
40+
- npx a3m-router route "your query"
41+
42+
GitHub: github.com/Das-rebel/a3m-router
43+
PR: github.com/RouteWorks/RouterArena/pull/113
44+
45+
---
46+
47+
5/ What's next:
48+
- Official leaderboard merge (PR pending review)
49+
- Improving robustness score
50+
- More providers
51+
- Better ensemble algorithms
52+
53+
The open-source approach to LLM routing is winning. 🏆
