Vercel AI GatewayLLM gateway — unified calls, cost tracking, and failover
Long-running coding and knowledge tasks can now route through one Vercel API. Useful if you already want retries, cost tracking, and failover without wiring providers yourself.
- Use
anthropic/claude-opus-4.8in theAI SDK; model switching stays inside the existing Gateway path. - Positioned for long-horizon agent work: multi-step refactors and complex coding tasks need less mid-task correction.
- Gateway adds usage and cost tracking, retries, failover, and latency/cost-based provider sorting. Less infra glue around LLM calls.
- Pricing mirrors provider rates with no Vercel markup or platform inference fee, including
BYOKrequests.
