Can Gimbix route to it first?
Not as a first-answer model through OpenRouter: no host returns token log probabilities for o1-pro. It can still be the model Gimbix falls back to when a cheaper model is unsure.
Cheaper models that can answer first
Models priced below o1-pro that expose a confidence signal. Whether they answer your traffic as well is what a Gimbix pilot measures.
