Example request

curl https://api.routerplus.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TM_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "claude-haiku-4-5",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Which open-source databases added vector search in 2026?"}],
    "tools": [{"type": "parallel:research", "parameters": {"max_uses": 1, "max_effort": "medium"}}]

The price is the provider's list price with no markup, charged per call to your RouterPlus balance; the model's own turns are billed as ordinary chat requests.
