What it does
RelayModels is one OpenAI-compatible endpoint for 39 top models -GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek - at a fraction of official API prices. Instead of a single upstream, we aggregate a large network of providers and continuously validate every route: we fingerprint responses, benchmark quality and latency, and drop any provider that doesn't serve the genuine model. Traffic is auto-routed to the best healthy one, with instant failover. Pay per token, no subscription.
A single OpenAI-compatible gateway to 39 models, pay-as-you-go per token, automatic provider failover.
An OpenAI-compatible gateway to GPT, Claude, Gemini, and other models. Pay-as-you-go pricing, no subscriptions, no minimums. Today's best model won't be the best next month. RelayModels gives you a single key to every provider: switch models with a string in your request, while we handle failover, limits, and billing. Add a chat assistant, text generation, and document parsing with one key — no separate contracts with every vendor. from $0.005 per 1K tokens, one key, automatic provider failover Streaming responses in OpenAI format: reasoning and function calling — all in one request from your code. Photos, audio, video, and PDFs go through the same request — no separate service or second…from relaymodels.com

GoModel – an open-source AI gateway in GoApr 2026 · github.com · ▲217Hi, I’m Jakub, a solo founder based in Warsaw. I’ve been building GoModel since December with a couple of contributors. It's an open-source AI gateway that sits between your app and model providers like OpenAI, Anthropic or others. I built it for my startup to solve a few problems: - track AI usage and cost per client or team - switch models without changing app code - debug request flows more easily - reduce AI spendings with exact and semantic caching How is it different? - ~17MB docker image - LiteLLM's image is more than 44x bigger ("docker.litellm.ai/berriai/litellm:latest" ~…
