We launched workspaces to organize your OpenRouter projects into separate environments, each with its own api keys, routing defaults, guardrails and observability.  

OpenRouter ( https://openrouter.ai?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=logo&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )OpenRouter ( https://openrouter.ai?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=logo&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )

*******************
Workspaces are live
*******************

Separate environments for separate projects. Each workspace scopes API keys, guardrails, BYOK, routing, presets, plugins, observability, and members. Billing, analytics, and account-level policies stay unified.

-------------
When to split
-------------

Multiple projects or agents with different default routing. Different teams with different environments and different guardrails. Separation for staging and production.

----------------------------
What's scoped to a workspace
----------------------------

API keys ( https://openrouter.ai/workspaces/default/keys?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=scoped_keys&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )
Every key lives in a workspace. Org admins can create system keys owned by the workspace, not an individual user. Filter Activity ( https://openrouter.ai/activity?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=scoped_activity&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io ) by workspace.

Guardrails ( https://openrouter.ai/workspaces/default/guardrails?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=scoped_guardrails&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )
Per-workspace policies for budgets, data retention, model and provider
allow and block lists, and PII redaction. Workspace guardrails inherit account-level restrictions and can only be more restrictive; within a workspace, you can scope rules to specific keys or members.

BYOK ( https://openrouter.ai/workspaces/default/byok?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=scoped_byok&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )
Bring your own provider keys per workspace, or reuse the same provider key across workspaces. Your
existing provider keys are already in Default.

Routing ( https://openrouter.ai/workspaces/default/routing?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=scoped_routing&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )
Provider routing policies per workspace. Optimize for cost, latency, throughput, or
tool-calling quality, independently per project.

Presets ( https://openrouter.ai/workspaces/default/presets?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=scoped_presets&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )
System prompts, model and provider configs, and request parameters, saved per
workspace.

Plugins ( https://openrouter.ai/workspaces/default/plugins?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=scoped_plugins&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )
Default plugin behavior per workspace.

Observability ( https://openrouter.ai/workspaces/default/observability?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=scoped_observability&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )
Different integrations per workspace, or route every
workspace to the same destination.

Members ( https://openrouter.ai/workspaces/default/members?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=scoped_members&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )
Org admins control which members access which workspaces. Members can belong to
multiple.

-------------------------------
What stays at the account level
-------------------------------

Activity and logs ( https://openrouter.ai/activity?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=account_activity&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )
One view across workspaces, filterable by workspace.

Credits and billing ( https://openrouter.ai/settings/credits?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=account_billing&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )
One bill.

Organization ( https://openrouter.ai/settings/organization-members?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=account_org&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )
Member roles and workspace assignments.

Management keys ( https://openrouter.ai/settings/management-keys?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=account_mgmt&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )
Cross-workspace configuration via the management API.

Privacy ( https://openrouter.ai/settings/privacy?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=account_privacy&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io )
Account-level data policies and allowed providers set the ceiling for every workspace.

----------------------
Your Default workspace
----------------------

Your existing setup already lives in a Default workspace. All current API keys, provider keys, routing, presets, plugins, and observability integrations are in it. For orgs, every current member has access to Default and every new member is added automatically. Chatroom and Fusion usage is governed by Default's settings.

If you don't need multiple workspaces, keep working out of Default. Nothing changes.

------------------
Create a workspace
------------------

Open your home dashboard ( https://openrouter.ai/workspaces?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=create_dashboard&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io ), click the
workspace picker, select Create Workspace ( https://openrouter.ai/workspaces/new?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=create_new&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io ), and give it a name and description. Org admins only can create or delete workspaces.

Create and manage workspaces programmatically through the management API ( https://openrouter.ai/docs/api/api-reference/workspaces/list-workspaces?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign=workspaces_launch&utm_content=mgmt_api&utm_campaign=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_content=Workspaces+Launch+Announcement&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer.io ).
