Fastest measured AI gateway · 1.91µs overhead

The gateway to superintelligence.

A public multi-tenant inference platform on the Foundry engine — identity, cost, isolation, and provider credentials from the first token to the on-chain receipt. One API. Every model.

The fastest gateway, by the numbers.

End-to-end latency against the same local benchmark harness on identical hardware. Foundry is the lowest-latency router we've measured in that harness.

OpenRouter is a switchboard. Foundry is infrastructure.

Marketplaces route calls. Foundry governs model access: identity, cost, isolation, provider credentials, usage logs, and policy from the first token to the on-chain receipt.

The platform

Built like infrastructure. Priced like a product.

01 / Router1 API

Every model behind one serious gateway.

One OpenAI-compatible API routes across provider fleets, subscription accounts, BYOK keys, and fallbacks — with policy controls, not a toy marketplace.

02 / EconomicsUSDC

Subscriptions for the six. Credits for the rest.

Flagship coding models run on flat USDC subscriptions with internal cost controls. Every other model stays on explicit PAYGO, BYOK, or enterprise capacity.

03 / Identityx402

Agents can pay, subscribe, and keep working.

Tenant identity binds humans, services, wallets, and autonomous agents to spending ceilings. x402 lets agents top up over HTTP in USDC.

04 / Control0 leaks

A cockpit for model access at company scale.

Keys, logs, models, provider credentials, budgets, alerts, and billing live in one tenant-aware console. Operators get the admin tools. Customers get the platform.
