The bold line starts in the week of Aug 31, the first week this model was called through Requesty, and the weeks shaded before it hold no sample for it. Each provider line is that provider's own median across every model it serves, which is the grain published per provider, so a provider line can cover weeks this model was not called in yet. The exact per-provider figures for this model are ranked below.

The two panes rank gpt-6-astra as measured on Requesty traffic: by the provider that served it, and by the region the request came from, where the share is how much of that region's traffic this model carries. Whole-window figures, because that is the grain Requesty publishes per provider and per region.

Those are the upstream provider rates: pay as you go adds 5% on top, or 0% if you bring your own provider keys.

Which provider is fastest for gpt-6-astra?
In recent production traffic through Requesty, OpenAI had the lowest median time to first token (3.08s) for gpt-6-astra. Latency shifts over time, so Requesty's latency-based routing picks the fastest healthy provider per request automatically.
How do I use gpt-6-astra with the OpenAI SDK?
Install the OpenAI SDK, set base_url to "https://router.requesty.ai/v1", set your API key to your Requesty key, and set the model to "gpt-6-astra" or any endpoint id from the table above. The quickstart section shows Python, JavaScript and cURL snippets.
Should I call gpt-6-astra by its managed id or a provider id?
Use the managed id, "gpt-6-astra". Requesty picks which of the 2 providers serves each request based on price and health, and fails over when one degrades, so the id keeps working while the routing changes underneath it. Send a provider id like "openai/gpt-6-astra:flex" only when you need one specific deployment and want no failover.
Route gpt-6-astra through one endpoint
One key for 2 providers on this model and 600+ others. No markup on provider prices, automatic failover, caching built in.
