Choosing an LLM gateway

Looking at alternatives for one endpoint in front of your model providers? A gateway decides where your provider keys live and who can spend what. These questions show how much of that it takes off your applications.

What to ask any LLM gateway vendor

And what MITHUNAI Gateway does today (Live), in the words of its own page.

As of 12 November 2026. Products change; ask each vendor to show you on your own content.

  1. 01Do clients need changing?

    No, if they speak the OpenAI format. They call one OpenAI-compatible address, whichever provider answers.

  2. 02Where do provider keys live?

    In the gateway’s encrypted vault. The applications that call it never hold a provider key.

  3. 03What happens when a provider fails?

    Requests are routed between the providers you add, with failover.

  4. 04Can you see and cap spend?

    Yes. Each gateway key carries its own usage and budget for the traffic that goes through it.

Where it stands today

  • MITHUNAI Chat sends its model calls through the gateway; the RAG answer engine calls providers with its own credentials, so its traffic is not counted here.
