Our Statement on Claude API Support in Bardo

Published: February 28, 2026

In light of recent news about Anthropic and Claude in the US, we would like to assure you that, regardless of the position taken by the US authorities, support for the Anthropic API via the OpenRouter API will not be discontinued at this time.

In the event of OpenRouter discontinuing support for the Claude API, we will implement native support for the Claude API in Bardo without intermediaries.

Please be advised that support for the OpenAI API in Bardo will be discontinued on April 19, 2026. We will also implement a system-wide ban on the use of Grok via OpenRouter.

Support for the OpenRouter API will be included with the release of Bardo 1.0.
