Gateway · Vercel
Vercel AI Gateway is a hosted gateway that lets you call models from many providers with one key, billed through your Vercel account. It works with Vercel's AI SDK and also with OpenAI-compatible clients.
Vercel says it charges provider list prices with no markup, and bring-your-own-key has no gateway fee but needs the paid tier. The free tier is a $5 monthly credit that only covers free-tier-eligible models with lower limits, and it stops once you buy credits.
