  1. tensorzero

    Discontinued TensorZero is an open-source LLMOps platform that unifies an LLM gateway, observability, evaluation, optimization, and experimentation.

    There was a high severity advisory last week https://github.com/tensorzero/tensorzero/security/advisories... though these days can't even tell if this is related or just routine

  3. plexus

    Unified API gateway for multiple AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, etc.). Switch models and providers without changing client code. Features OAuth authentication, quota tracking, embeddings, transcriptions, and OpenAI-compatible endpoints. (by mcowger)

    Just use Plexus [1]. The maintainer is not trying to be a hero or raise seed dollars or even really trying to promote it. He's just making an excellent, useful product. (Unaffiliated, just a happy user). It's not a full-on "LLMOps" platform (whatever that is), it's just a proxy that works very well and has some nice features.

  4. litellm

    The fastest, litest AI Gateway. Rust core with Python SDK. Call 100+ LLM APIs in OpenAI (or native) format with cost tracking, guardrails, load balancing, and logging [Bedrock, Azure, OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenAI, VertexAI, vLLM, Nvidia NIM]

  5. gateway

    Agentify Gateway: community-maintained LLM gateway derived from TensorZero (by agentify-sh)

    I've forked this and will be updating and fixing issues going forward.

    https://github.com/agentify-sh/gateway

    For now I will just open this up to see if there is any interest if so I would be spending whatever free time I get to fix issues and open it up to other contributors so we can keep going.

    I think its important to have an LLM gateway tool like this to remain open source.
