How to Test Ox Alpha on OpenRouter for Free

A mysterious new model just landed on OpenCode and OpenRouter, and it's free to test for the next week. Ox Alpha reportedly carries a 1M-token context, supports multimodal input, and beats Fable 5 and GPT-5.6 Sol on the DeepSWE coding benchmark.

The free access with generous limits only lasts a week, so now is the time to try it.

Tutorial

1. Open http://openrouter.ai/stealth/ox-alpha on your browser. This is the model's page on OpenRouter, where the offer is live.

1. Test it with a coding prompt. Ox Alpha reportedly leads the DeepSWE benchmark, so a real coding problem is the fastest way to see if the performance holds up.

Wrapping Up

You've got a week to run Ox Alpha with no cost. Give it a nontrivial coding task, or a multimodal one, and decide for yourself whether the hype checks out.
