Vercel AI Gateway
Vercel's gateway for routing to many model providers through one endpoint and one bill.
Vercel AI Gateway gives access to models from many providers behind one endpoint, with failover, spend visibility, and a single bill. It is designed to pair with the Vercel AI SDK and the rest of the Vercel platform.
For teams already deploying on Vercel, it keeps model access inside the same platform and workflow.
Where it fits
A natural fit for teams building on Vercel and the AI SDK who want unified model access without separate accounts.
Where it does not fit
Most compelling inside the Vercel ecosystem, less so for a stack hosted elsewhere.
