A model that's "in the API" can be used by programmers, even if it isn't in a chat app yet., with a Pro version for full-length 48kHz songs and a Clip version for 30-second clips. It is listed on OpenRouter: A service that gives developers one place to use hundreds of models from many labs. New models often appear there early, sometimes anonymously..
Model ID: The exact name developers type to use a model, like gpt-5-mini. New IDs often show up in a lab's systems before the official announcement, which is how trckr spots many releases early.
