NEXUS BY FIREWORKS: #1 ON THE VALS AI ROUTER INDEX

Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

Nexus picks the best open or closed model for each turn and learns what your team prefers. It works inside Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and the other tools you already use. At max effort, Nexus Auto scored 89.3% vs. 86.8% for Claude Opus 5.5 across 1,222 tasks, at 17% lower cost. It's also #1 on the independent Vals AI Router Index [5], the first router to pass 60%. New this week: Nexus Desktop for macOS turns it on with one switch. Pro starts at $8/month, with zero data retention on every plan.
