Jev Router Posts Fastest Median TTFT Across Five Agent Benchmarks on OpenRouter
In agent workloads, TTFT compounds across every tool-call round, so a latency edge at the router layer can cut total task time more than a model swap would. Teams building multi-step agents on OpenRouter can treat Jev Router as a default routing choice when responsiveness matters more than marginal quality differences. The comparison also gives a reference point for judging whether paid routing options justify their overhead.
OpenRouter tested multiple routers across five agent benchmarks and published the results on its official X account.
Jev Router recorded a faster median time to first token than every other router in the comparison.The comparison data covers latency rather than output quality.
OpenRouter notes that low latency is especially impactful in agent scenarios with multi-turn tool calls.
On five agent benchmarks, Jev Router had a faster median time to first token than every other router we tested.📊 3 ⚡
