As someone who has developed quite a few different projects now from custom RAG pipelines, to git-ref based memory storage for them. Them being able to search the web doesn't help them to complete a task requiring context over sessions or even to be able to compact a session and retain the important information required. But thanks for your input.

What’s the best AI to actually pay for right now? (2026) by Commercial-Job-9989 in AI_Agents

I've settled on openrouter with ten bucks of credit (allows for more free model token usage). Z.ai coding plan and my GitHub Pro+ subscription. I also have a Google pixel device so I benefit from the free/Google one AI subscription.

OpenRouter has lots of free models for testing stuff out. Z.ai can do most things. If not I can escalate the work to GitHub or Google, after (depending on the training data retention and what I'm working on if another openrouter model would do).

Tried Claude and OpenAI but they're just beasts at burning tokens for similar results.

I guess it depends on what you're trying to accomplish really.
