Transform your natural language requests into structured OpenRouter API request objects. Describe what you want to accomplish with AI models, and Body Builder will construct the appropriate API calls. Example: "count to 10 using gemini and opus." This is useful for creating multi-model requests, custom model routers, or programmatic generation of API calls from human descriptions. **BETA NOTICE**: Body Builder is in beta, and currently free. Pricing and functionality may change in the future.
