Introducing RoutePlex: The Unified AI Gateway
Building with AI should be simple. But right now, using multiple AI models means managing multiple API keys, different SDKs, inconsistent error handling, and per-provider billing. RoutePlex changes that.
The Problem
Every AI provider has its own API format, authentication pattern, and billing dashboard. If you want to use GPT-4o for some tasks and Claude for others — or route intelligently between them — you're writing glue code, managing multiple accounts, and losing visibility into total costs.
Our Solution
RoutePlex gives you a single API endpoint that routes to 22+ AI models across OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google. One API key. One billing dashboard. One integration.
What makes RoutePlex different:
- Intelligent Routing — Our
routeplex-aimode automatically selects the best model based on your request characteristics, cost preferences, and latency requirements. - OpenAI SDK Compatible — Just change the base URL. Your existing OpenAI SDK code works instantly with all supported models.
- Automatic Failover — If one provider goes down, requests silently reroute to the next available provider. Your users never see an error.
- Stateless by Design — We never store your prompts or responses. Data flows through in-memory and is immediately discarded.
- Micro-cent Billing — Usage is tracked to the micro-cent level. No rounding up, no minimum charges for what you don't use.
Getting Started
You can start using RoutePlex in under 2 minutes:
- Create a free evaluation account at routeplex.com
- Generate your API key from the dashboard
- Point your OpenAI SDK to
https://api.routeplex.com/api/v1 - Start making requests
The evaluation plan gives you real access to real models — same API, same endpoints, same quality. Just with daily limits to get started.
What's Next
We're shipping fast. Here's what's coming:
- Team workspaces — Shared API keys and per-project budgets
- Custom routing rules — Define your own model selection logic
- More models — Expanding across additional providers
- Streaming support — Real-time token delivery via SSE
We built RoutePlex because we needed it ourselves. We think you'll find it useful too.
