One API, Every Model
Unified access to top-tier models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Mistral, and more. Whether you are using Claude Opus 4.8 or a specialized open-source model, Kilo Gateway routes your request intelligently.
Kilo Gateway
The Universal Gateway for AI Inference
Route LLM requests to any provider, anywhere. Use Kilo Gateway to power your own apps, or bring your own keys to access models without a subscription.

Why Kilo Gateway
The intelligent routing layer for all your AI inference needs
One endpoint, every provider, and full control over how requests get routed and paid for.
Flexible "Bring Your Own Key" (BYOK)
Don't want another subscription? No problem. Plug in your existing API keys (from providers like Z.ai or MiniMax) and use Kilo Gateway as your centralized infrastructure. Pay only for the routing, not the tokens.
Instant Access, No Friction
Start using the Gateway immediately with no barriers to entry. Use Kilo Gateway automatically inside IDE, CLI, and Cloud, or call it directly from your own apps via API.
Features for developers
Everything a production app needs from a model gateway: resilience, a standard integration surface, and visibility into routing decisions.
Robust Risk Management
Built-in abuse detection and heuristic checks protect your implementation from anomalous traffic patterns.
Standardized Integration
Drop-in compatible with standard AI SDKs (like Vercel AI SDK). Switch providers without rewriting your codebase.
High Availability
Our infrastructure handles the routing complexity, load balancing requests between direct providers and gateways like OpenRouter/Vercel to ensure maximum uptime.
Auto Model Routing
Route each request to the best model available while keeping routing decisions, spend, and model behavior visible and controllable.
Auto Model
Gateway is the model network. Auto Model is the router.
Kilo Gateway gives Auto Model access to the hosted catalog and routing surface. Kilo routes each task to the best model available while keeping the routing decision, spend, and model behavior visible and controllable.
Learn about Auto ModelTeam & governance
Granular controls for teams, not just individuals
Enterprise provider configuration gives teams a concrete way to turn policy into day-to-day developer defaults. Admins can approve providers, restrict model access, and keep unsupported routes out of the engineering workflow.
Routing Intelligence
Use Kilo Gateway to route requests across approved models and providers, with fallback paths and orchestration handled centrally.
Usage Insights
Track model usage, latency, spend, BYOK activity, and adoption across teams from one place.
Enterprise Controls
Approve providers, restrict model access, manage keys, and enforce identity controls so teams stay compliant without losing flexibility.
