There are plenty of good models on Openrouter that are very cheap, maybe it's time to experiment with alternatives.

what are some of them?

MiniMax M2.7, MiMo-V2-Pro, GLM-5, GLM5-turbo, Kimi K2.5, DeepSeek V3.2, Step 3.5 Flash (this last one is particularly cheap while still being powerful).

Can't judge on the quality of the comparison but I'd start from https://arena.ai/leaderboard/code and maybe from OpenRouter's ranking.
