About
This ComfyUI extension adds 13 nodes that let workflows call any OpenRouter model using the user's own API key, spanning six categories of models including chat (with image, video, audio, or document input) and image generation and editing. A dedicated Request Options node lets users choose providers for the eight paid model types, so ComfyUI users can route parts of a workflow to hosted models without leaving the node editor.
At a glance
This extension adds OpenRouter calls to ComfyUI graphs. It is worth trying if you already build node workflows and want a hosted model step without moving the rest of the graph to another interface.
Good fit
ComfyUI users composing a text or media workflow with a provider account they already control.
Consider something else when
Keep the workflow local if prompts, documents or media cannot leave your machine.
Start here
Start with a short synthetic text question and preview the answer. Check the provider’s usage record before adding a media node or sharing the workflow.
Cost and requirements
MIT-licensed extension. The documented minimums are Python 3.12, ComfyUI 0.34.6 and frontend 1.49.6, with an OpenRouter key and possible usage charges.
Limits to know
Generation sends inputs to the provider. The key stays on the ComfyUI server according to the docs, and cancelling the local wait can leave accepted jobs running and billable.

Why it made the leaderboard
It lets ComfyUI users mix OpenRouter's model catalog directly into visual pipelines instead of hand-wiring separate API calls for each provider.
