Fusion (OpenRouter) Lets You Combine Multiple Models to Reach Fable-Level Intelligence for LessThe script covers a new OpenRouter Fusion API update that runs a prompt across a parallel panel of up to eight models (with web search and bash tools), then uses a judge model to extract consensus, contradictions, unique insights, and missing coverage before returning one fused answer. Fusion is presented as a way to boost benchmark performance and reduce token costs versus relying on a single frontier model, with tests on 100 hard deep-research tasks showing much of the lift coming from synthesis rather than diversity. Examples compare solo models versus panels, including a “budget panel” of cheaper models landing within 1% of Claude Fable 5 on intelligence tests, and demonstrations of using Fusion in chat and via API to generate outputs like SEO research and a clean landing page.00:00 Fusion Update Overview00:51 Panels Beat Solo Models01:43 Budget Panel Near Fable02:23 How Fusion Works03:05 Live Panel Demo03:53 Benchmark Results Breakdown05:02 API Integration Ideas05:50 Boardroom SEO Example06:56 Judge Fusion Output08:05 Draco Benchmark Explained09:10 Landing Page Results10:28 Wrap Up And Offers
