Why: Router is US-only, so Malaysian builders cannot use it directly, but its default-on one-year data retention policy is a concrete reminder to check what your model router logs by default—especially if you route sensitive customer data through third-party routers. The free-through-2026 pricing and $26 credit are temporary and pricing for 2027 is undisclosed, so don't build long-term cost assumptions on it. ai-routing ai-inference data-retention fintech
