# 9Router - FREE AI Router & Token Saver Never stop coding. Save 20-40% tokens with RTK + auto-fallback to FREE & cheap AI models. Connect All AI Code Tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity, Copilot, Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, Cline, OpenClaw...) to 40+ AI Providers & 100+ Models. 🚀 Quick Start • 💡 Features • 📖 Setup • 🌐 Website 🇧🇷 Português (Brasil) • 🇻🇳 Tiếng Việt • 🇨🇳 中文 • 🇯🇵 日本語 • 🇷🇺 Русский • 🇹🇭 ไทย • 🇮🇷 فارسی • 🇮🇩 Indonesia • 🇪🇸 Español • 🇫🇷 Français 🤔 Why 9Router?

Install globally: 🎉 Dashboard opens at http://localhost:20128 2. Connect a FREE provider (no signup needed): Dashboard → Providers → Connect Kiro AI (~50 credits/month free: Claude 4.5 + GLM-5 + MiniMax) or OpenCode Free (no auth) → Done! 3. Use in your CLI tool: That's it! Start coding with FREE AI models. Alternative: run from source (this repository): This repository package is private (9router-app), so source/Docker execution is the expected local development path. Production mode: Default URLs: - Dashboard: http://localhost:20128/dashboard - OpenAI-compatible API:…
