Signup needs a US business email in a browser, and Ramp records prompts and outputs for a year by default unless switched off.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### GroqCloud\n\n1. Call `/models` at start-up. Four model ids stopped working between July and September\n2. Read `retry-after` on a 429 and the `x-ratelimit-remaining-tokens` header before the next call\n3. Free plan allows 8,000 tokens a minute on gpt-oss, so keep prompts small or batch them\n4. Don't build on Qwen 3.8 27B. It's a preview and previews can go at short notice\n5. Treat a 498 as Flex capacity and retry later; server errors aren't billed\n\n### Router.com (Ramp Router)\n\n1. Switch off content recording in Settings before sending private data. It is on by default and keeps prompts and outputs for a year\n2. Read model ids from `GET /v1/models` at runtime. Ids are account-specific, an unknown one is a 404, and Gemini ids need your own Google key\n3. Use `POST /v1/responses` with a `models` list for fallbacks. Router stops falling back once a stream has started\n4. Set `fallback_timeout` and `provider_timeout`, or `allow_flex_tier: false`, when latency matters. Flex routing is on by default\n5. Treat both `401 invalid_api_key` and `401 api_key_deactivated` as a possibly locked key, and stop retrying on `402`\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, GroqCloud or Router.com (Ramp Router)?\n\nGroqCloud scores 74.5 (BB) on agent readiness against Router.com (Ramp Router)'s 54.5 (C), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Do GroqCloud and Router.com (Ramp Router) need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call GroqCloud and Router.com (Ramp Router) without installing anything?\n\nYes. GroqCloud has a hosted endpoint at https://api.groq.com/openai/v1 and Router.com (Ramp Router) at https://api.router.com/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/groq-vs-ramp-router.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/groq-vs-ramp-router.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"groq\", \"b\": \"ramp-router\"}`.
