Martian

Martian is a model routing company founded by Etan Ginsberg and Shriyash Upadhyay that directs each request to the model offering the best result for the task. It runs a dynamic router that weighs accuracy against price across many providers, and an interpretability-driven approach informs how it predicts which model will perform on a given input. The product targets organizations spending heavily on inference that want to control cost without sacrificing output quality. A single interface across providers also gives automatic failover when one model degrades or goes offline. The router exposes an OpenAI-compatible endpoint, so existing client code can point at it without changes.

Key Capabilities:

• Dynamic routing across commercial and open models

• Cost and quality optimization per individual request

• A unified interface spanning multiple providers

• Automatic failover when a provider degrades

• Spend analytics across routed traffic

• Enterprise controls for large-scale inference workloads
