What is Model Gateway?

AI Infrastructure

Last updated:

A routing layer that sits between applications and multiple AI model providers, handling auth, load balancing, and failover.

Model gateways like LiteLLM, Portkey, and custom solutions provide a unified API across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and self-hosted models. They enable provider switching, cost tracking, rate limiting, and fallback routing without changing application code.
