Vercel’s AI Gateway just turned a page for AI-in-production complexity. Anyone who has tried to ship with multiple LLM providers knows the pain: one model is fast but flaky, another reliable but costly, and stitching them together means juggling APIs, logging, and endless glue code. What Vercel is doing with the AI Gateway feels like a real step toward maturity: - A single endpoint to access many models, which cuts boilerplate and reduces moving parts. - Bring-your-own-provider-key support, so teams keep pricing control while still using Vercel’s routing and reliability. - Built-in failover and sub-20ms latency routing, which makes it production-ready rather than a cool toy. - Observability out of the box: logs, metrics, and cost per model. You can finally see which models are being used, where, when, and at what cost. The bigger signal here is that AI infrastructure itself is growing up. We are moving beyond flashy demos into questions of scale, reliability, and cost discipline. The open question: will this kind of gateway become a default layer in every AI stack the way CDNs became for the web? Or will teams keep trying to build their own until the cracks show? #AI #LLM #MLOps #AIGateway #Vercel #AIInfrastructure #DevTools #GenerativeAI #EnterpriseAI #SoftwareEngineering #APIs #Cloud #AITrends
