Create an account
LowRouter accounts are individual: one email, one identity, one credit balance. Team accounts and shared workspaces are on the roadmap; until they ship, share access via separate API keys rather than shared credentials.
Get an invite
LowRouter is in invite-only beta. Self-service sign-up is closed, so visiting the register page without an invite shows a waitlist form rather than a sign-up form. Join the waitlist there and we’ll email an invite link when a place opens up.
The invite link is single-use and expires — it takes you straight to the sign-up form with your email already filled in.
Sign up
Follow the invite link and fill in:
- Email — used for verification, sign-in, and billing receipts.
- Password — a strong, unique one. The full policy is below.
- Country — used to compute the right tax treatment on invoices. You can correct it later from the settings page.
Alternatively, sign in with a federated identity provider listed on the sign-up page. Federated sign-in does not change anything about how your data is stored — see the privacy policy for the full picture.
Password policy
A password must be at least 8 characters and contain at least one of each of:
- an uppercase letter (
A–Z) - a lowercase letter (
a–z) - a digit (
0–9) - a symbol — anything that is not a letter or a digit (
!,?,-,#, and so on)
There is no maximum length, and no character is forbidden. Every rule
is enforced server-side as well as in the form, so a password that
fails one is rejected with a 400 naming the rule it missed rather
than a generic error.
Verify your email
After registration we send a verification link. The link is valid for 24 hours. Until you verify, you can sign in but you cannot create API keys or top up credits — guarding against typos and disposable-mailbox sign-ups.
If the email doesn’t arrive, check spam, then use Resend verification on the sign-in page. If it still doesn’t arrive, contact support — see the email on the legal page.
Top up credits
LowRouter is pre-paid. To send a request you need a non-zero credit balance.
- Go to Dashboard → Credits.
- Click Add credits.
- Pick an amount and complete the Stripe-hosted checkout.
Credits land in your account when Stripe confirms the payment, usually within a few seconds. The credit amount you pick is exclusive of the top-up fees and VAT: checkout adds a payment-processing fee (8%, €0.75 minimum) and a 1.5% LowRouter fee, itemizes the total before you pay, and Stripe — the seller of record — adds VAT and issues the invoice that lands in your inbox. Worked examples are on the pricing page.
The full pricing model is documented in credits and billing.
What’s stored
After sign-up the platform stores:
- Your email address (sign-in, billing receipts).
- A salted hash of your password (never the plaintext).
- The country and any billing details you provided.
- A unique numeric user ID used internally.
We do not store any prompt or response content. Token counts, model IDs, provider IDs, regions, latencies, and the eco numbers are stored per request — see usage accounting for the full schema.
