## Choose when

### Choose awesome-gpt3 if…

- Requirements: - No specific technical requirements stated except for engaging with GPT-3 through its API..
- Tags unique to awesome-gpt3: ai demos, gpt-3 applications.
- - When you are looking for specific examples of how to leverage GPT-3's powerful API across different applications ranging from code generation to creative writing.

### Choose GPTRouter if…

- 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.
- Also covers Inference & Serving, LLM Frameworks.
- GPTRouter ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- When your project requires seamless integration of different language models such as OpenAI, Anthropic, and Azure and demands reliability and fast response times.

## When NOT to use awesome-gpt3

- - When seeking a direct development tool to integrate GPT-3 into your projects without further curation and customization. 'awesome-gpt3' is an example showcase rather than an SDK.
