Your best bet is having an account on AWS Bedrock & Vertex AI so you're able to route your request to the same model (such as claude-sonnet-4) but on a different provider.

lol. i get you - i think the 3rd point you shared - it's not exactly about CI issue - CI is already as fast as it can be. It's just that a prompt is a critical part of your AI app and any change to it needs to go through a few hoops before it's available to all users.

On Portkey, since we decouple prompt templates from your code - you can continue iterating on the prompts on Portkey and just reference the prompt ID in code. Any change you make to Portkey prompts automatically get reflected in the app because the prompt ID keeps pointing to the latest / published version.

does that make sense?

This is actually pretty cool. Would love to try it!

I'm affiliated with Portkey, so can answer who would need such a proxy/gateway:

Sidenote: Arch is def interesting!

A typical user we've seen at Portkey is a mid or a large size eng org where a central "Gen AI team" has now come up. This Gen AI team builds services that the rest of the company uses to build whatever AI features or products they want.

To build such a service, they need traditional API Gateway features like rate limiting, access rules, and also AI-specific features like universal API to multiple LLM providers, universal routing, central guardrails, AI-native observability + central dashboard for other stakeholders, and more.

It can absolutely be a plugin on top of existing Gateways.. like we've explored putting Portkey on Kong, but the need for a dedicated AI Gateway still remains, that can do all of these things I described in an easier way.

Probably, solutions like Langchain/Llamaindex etc. also fit in somewhere here, but a dedicated service for "ops" related issues for LLM APIs is something that we're seeing orgs adopt as a good practice.

Pretty excited to announce this! While there are some popular and awesome AI gateways out there, like litellm, bricksai - none are written in TS, and for the TS ecosystem. Looking forward to the community's feedback
