What you can do with Bifrost, fully managed by Elestio.
Bifrost is a high-performance AI gateway that sits in front of 15+ LLM providers, OpenAI, Anthropic, Bedrock, Vertex, Azure, Mistral, Ollama, and more, behind a single OpenAI-compatible API. It handles automatic failover and load balancing across providers, so a single outage doesn't take down your application. Built-in budgets, rate limits, and Virtual Keys let you control spend and access per key, with anonymous inference requests rejected by default. A management dashboard covers provider configuration, routing rules, observability (logs, MCP tool calls), and governance in one place. It's designed as a drop-in replacement wherever an application already speaks the OpenAI API format.
One OpenAI-compatible API in front of 15+ providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Bedrock, Vertex, Azure, Mistral, Ollama...). Switch providers without changing your integration code.
Requests are automatically routed and retried across providers/models, keeping your application resilient to individual provider outages or rate limits.
Set per-key budgets and rate limits in Governance > Virtual Keys, so usage and spend stay under control across teams and applications.
Every inference request must carry a valid virtual key, anonymous calls are rejected by default, giving you built-in access control out of the box.
