OpenRouter publishes daily token totals for its ~50 most-served models. Days missing from the chart mean Step 5 Preview fell below that cutoff — not zero usage. OpenRouter logs usage separately per dated model version and per variant (like ":free"); the hub combines provider variants while keeping separately cataloged releases distinct.
