- Tags unique to conduit: mobile, ollama, openwebui, selfhosted.
- - You are using a self-hosted AI service compatible with OpenWebUI, OpenAI APIs, or Ollama endpoint, and require a mobile interface for it.
When NOT to use conduit
- - If you aim to use proprietary AI services that do not offer OpenAI-compatible APIs or are not compatible with the endpoints supported by Conduit.
- - Your development setup does not include Flutter SDK with Dart 3.9 or newer, Java 17 for Android builds, and Xcode or Android Studio.
Choose GPTRouter if…
- GPTRouter is primarily TypeScript; conduit is Dart.
- License: GPTRouter is MIT, conduit is GPL-3.0.
- Pricing: GPTRouter is open-source under the MIT License. However, costs might arise from using associated models like OpenAI or Anthropic..
- Requirements: Min 2 GB RAM.
- Tags unique to GPTRouter: anthropic, azure-openai, cohere, google-gemini.

When NOT to use GPTRouter
- Avoid using GPTRouter if your project strictly uses Python without the flexibility to adopt TypeScript, as it may hinder seamless integration.
- If your application exclusively focuses on a single LLM or image model provider lacking the need for managing multiple providers, consider alternatives more focused in scope and potentially lighter.
