AI gateway

Also called: AI gateways

A service that centralizes model routing, policy, observability, and provider access for AI applications.

Example

Route model requests through a gateway when shared policy, telemetry, or provider failover is an explicit requirement.

The distinction that matters

Product capabilities vary; verify routing, policy, privacy, logging, and failover behavior before relying on a gateway.
