Everything is a wrapper bro. All you need is a unified multimodal api, secure AI gateway, a few MCPs, some rules, an OS ui and you're good to go. Total bill shouldn't cost more than a few hundred bucks. You could deploy at zero cost with a little engineering.

Appscript solves - cold starts, serverless, costs, login, cybersecurity, storage, speed and tech chaining. All you need is a script. Vanilla javascript can automate anything.

Hello, we've been using GatewayAI since almost day one, but it's still sad to see that you don't put prices for

openAI/dall-e-3

openAI/dall-e-3

image generation.

Our apps uses a lot of that and the pricing you're displaying is wrong since you don't take that into consideration.

One easy fix and accurate would be to map prices with the quality and resolution asked since it's known there:

wellroundedtable•8/1/25, 6:56 PM

Hey guys, I think I may have complicated the system by trying to manage my domain from multiple Cloudflare acounts. In one account my domains status is: active. Cloudflare sent an email to that email address warning me that I need to validate my domain, but when I click the box and approve the certificate I receive this error:

An error occurred while attempting to validate your domain. Please try again later or contact support for assistance.

Does this have anything to do with my being “connected” to the same domain with a different Cloudflare acounts associated with a different email address with the status as “invalid nameservers.”

AI gateway doesn't support transcription endpoints? I tried sending the below request through the gateway but it just gives this error: "500 Audio file processing failed". Looks like something to do with the audio file not getting sent properly? It works fine when sending it without AI Gateway

Hello everyone, I encountered some issues while using ai-gateway.

I usually use OPTIONS requests to check if the interface is available, but when I request openrouter through the gateway, I get a 500 error internally in Cloudflare, like this

curl --location --request OPTIONS ‘https://your-gateway/openrouter/v1/models’

curl --location --request OPTIONS ‘https://your-gateway/openrouter/v1/models’

which would return

AIGateway will default to inserting Cf-Country into the request, which cannot be changed.

When you request a provider such as OpenAI, it will be filtered according to the provider's service policy.

For similar providers, I recommend using a gateway service such as OpenRouter or adding an additional layer of routing (to SG maybe).
