Portkey
Portkey is a comprehensive production stack for GenAI builders that equips AI teams with everything they need to deploy and manage AI applications at scale. The platform provides a unified solution combining an AI Gateway, Observability, Guardrails, Governance, and Prompt Management.
Core Capabilities
AI Gateway
Portkey offers a unified API to access 1,600+ LLMs from various providers, eliminating the need to integrate models individually. This allows teams to focus on building rather than managing multiple integrations.
Observability
The platform provides real-time monitoring of LLM behavior, enabling teams to catch anomalies early and manage usage proactively through comprehensive dashboards.
MCP Gateway
Portkey's Model Context Protocol (MCP) Gateway centralizes authentication, access, and observability of MCP servers, simplifying the development process.
AI Governance
Teams can manage resources with clear hierarchy, Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), and collaborative tools while maintaining security and compliance.
Key Statistics
- Powers 3,000+ GenAI teams
- Processes billions of tokens daily
- Supports 1,600+ LLMs
- Strong open-source community with significant GitHub stars
Easy Integration
Portkey can be integrated in just 3 lines of code with support for Node.js, Python, OpenAI SDKs, and cURL, requiring no changes to existing tech stacks.
