SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It removes the complexity of calling multiple AI providers by providing a unified, production-ready routing layer that handles provider failover and usage visibility.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Unified model routing via provider/model strings: Use a single API entry point to access many models across providers without provider-specific wiring.
  • Failover and provider selection controls: Configure provider order, allowed providers, and fallback models to keep requests working when a provider degrades or fails.
  • Cost and operations guardrails: Apply per-user rate limiting, tagging for budget attribution, and caching strategies to control latency and spend.
  • Observability and audit logging: Use Vercel’s AI Gateway logs for debugging, compliance support, and usage analysis.

Quick Start

Configure your project to use Vercel AI Gateway with OIDC by linking the Vercel project and running vercel env pull, then call models using the format provider/model such as openai/gpt-5.4 (optionally wrapped with gateway()).

FAQPage Schema
How do I route AI model calls to multiple providers with automatic failover?

Route AI model calls through Vercel AI Gateway using provider/model strings like openai/gpt-5.4. This unified entry point manages automatic provider failover and cost observability without provider-specific wiring.

How do I track AI API costs and apply rate limiting per user?

Track AI API costs and apply per-user rate limiting by configuring Vercel AI Gateway options. Use tags for budget attribution and caching strategies to control latency and spend across production environments.

Does Vercel AI Gateway support OIDC authentication for model routing?

Vercel AI Gateway supports OIDC authentication for model routing. Link your Vercel project and run vercel env pull to configure environment variables before calling models using the provider/model format.

Can I configure provider order and allowed models for AI gateway routing?

Configure provider order, allowed providers, and fallback models using gateway routing options. Set the order, only, and models parameters to keep requests working when a provider degrades or fails.

What is the best way to handle gateway error responses when calling multiple AI providers?

Handle gateway error responses and provider failures by configuring failover controls in Vercel AI Gateway. Define provider order and fallback models to ensure requests automatically route to healthy providers.

Can I use Vercel AI Gateway for multi-provider chat and coding applications?

Vercel AI Gateway applies to multi-provider chat, coding, and routing strategies. Use a single API entry point with provider/model identifiers to access many models across providers in production environments.
