Stripe to buy startup OpenRouter for $10 billion: Report

Payments company Stripe is in preliminary talks to acquire AI model marketplace OpenRouter in a deal valued at around $10 billion, according to a Wall Street Journal report. If the deal goes through, it will mark an eight-time increase from the startup’s $1.3 billion valuation, which it achieved earlier in May after its latest funding round.
