The Problem

Teams are wiring multiple LLM providers directly into separate services, agents, and automation workflows. When a provider rate-limits, has an outage, or becomes too expensive for routine prompts, production workflows fail or costs spike. The pain is operational: central policy, fallback chains, budget caps, observability, and token compression are missing or fragmented across services.

Potential Solution

Offer a managed LLM gateway setup and operations package for teams already using OpenAI, Anthropic, self-hosted models, or automation agents. The first version can be a service that installs and configures an existing gateway stack, defines routing policies, sets team budgets, adds fallback chains, and monitors failures and spend. Over time, the repeatable pieces can become a productized gateway configuration layer, reliability playbook, and managed control plane.

Why Now?

LLM usage is spreading from prototypes into production services and agentic workflows, while provider outages, rate limits, and model price differences are becoming daily operational concerns. The emergence of many router projects suggests buyer awareness, but also fragmentation that creates demand for expert setup and ongoing management.

AI Hub: 50+ Open Source LLM

AI HUB: THE ECONOMIC ARBITRAGE OF MODEL AGGREGATION The superficial interpretation of AI Hub is that it is an application aggregating fifty-plus language and generative models beneath a common interface. That description is technically adequate and strategically insufficient. The more consequential question is not how many models the application exposes, but what economic and operational structure emerges when an increasingly heterogeneous model ecosystem

Open LLM Gateway : Self-hosted LLM gateway with portal, child keys, and cost analytics, no seat cap

We used multiple LLM providers from different clouds: Google, Azure, and AWS. Every app and project had its own API key. We could not see which key belonged to which application. We also had no clear view of token usage and tracking. Later, finance asked which product spent a lot of money. We could not answer. This was a work problem. I did not plan to build a product. First I tried LiteLLM. It is a good tool if you need many model providers. We did not need that many. We needed the real key to stay in one safe place. Each team should get its own child key. I also wanted a simple page to see cost by app. Then the team became larger. LiteLLM Admin UI SSO is free for only 5 users. After 5 users, you need the Enterprise plan. Org admin and SCIM are also Enterprise. I did not want to buy a license only to let more people log in. So I built Open LLM Gateway. Your apps can still use the OpenAI or Anthropic SDK. You only change the base URL. Master keys stay encrypted in the portal. Apps get child keys (sk\_…). You can rotate a child key, add a tag, or turn it off. You do not need to change the provider account. Request logs are saved after the response, so the chat is not slower. The portal is Apache 2.0. It has organizations, roles, invites, optional Google login, and comprehensive analytics There is no 5-user SSO limit. What works now: OpenAI /openai/\* and Anthropic /anthropic/\*, routing like provider/alias, streaming, a rate limit per key, and deploy on Cloudflare Workers and Vercel. What it is not: it is not LiteLLM if you only need many providers. It is not OpenRouter if you want a hosted service and you do not want to run it yourself. Spend limits and guardrails are not ready yet. If your company wants a self-hosted LLM gateway, with no seat cap, and with the admin UI fully open source, Open LLM Gateway may be a good fit.
