[AI Gateway](https://vercel.com/ai-gateway) is now generally available, providing a single unified API to access hundreds of AI models with transparent pricing and built-in observability.

With sub-20ms latency routing across multiple inference providers, AI Gateway delivers:

- Transparent pricing with no markup on tokens (including Bring Your Own Keys)
- Automatic failover for higher availability
- High rate limits
- Detailed cost and usage analytics

You can use AI Gateway with the [AI SDK](https://ai-sdk.dev/) or through the OpenAI-compatible endpoint. With the AI SDK, it’s just a simple model string switch.

Get started with a single API call:

```tsx
import { streamText } from 'ai'
const result = streamText({
  model: 'openai/gpt-5',
  prompt: 'How can AI Gateway not have a markup on tokens?'
})
```
