Classifications method reference

The Python SDK and docs are currently in beta. Report issues on GitHub.

Overview

Task classification market-share endpoints

Available Operations

get_task_classifications

Returns the market-share breakdown of OpenRouter traffic by task classification (e.g. code generation, web search, summarization) over a trailing time window.

Each classification reports its share of classified sampled requests (usage_share) and classified sampled token volume (token_share) as fractions between 0 and 1. The unclassified other bucket is excluded. Absolute volumes are not exposed because the underlying data is sampled.

Each classification also includes a models array listing the top models by request volume within that classification, with their within-tag usage and token shares.

Classifications are grouped into macro-categories (Code, Data, Agent, General) with aggregate shares provided for each.

Authenticate with any valid OpenRouter API key (same key used for inference). Rate-limited to 30 requests/minute per key and 500 requests/day per account.

Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescriptionExample
http_refererOptional[str]The app identifier should be your app’s URL and is used as the primary identifier for rankings.
This is used to track API usage per application.
x_open_router_titleOptional[str]The app display name allows you to customize how your app appears in OpenRouter’s dashboard.
x_open_router_categoriesOptional[str]Comma-separated list of app categories (e.g. “cli-agent,cloud-agent”). Used for marketplace rankings.
windowOptional[operations.Window]Trailing time window for the classification data. Currently only 7d (trailing 7 days) is supported.7d
retriesOptional[utils.RetryConfig]Configuration to override the default retry behavior of the client.
