Cloudflare AI Gateway

Cloudflare AI Gateway is a centralized management layer designed to sit between applications and various Large Language Model (LLM) providers (such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and others). It provides a unified interface for developers to monitor, manage, and optimize the performance and cost of AI-driven applications. The platform provides a single point of control for all outgoing AI model requests, enabling centralized observability, rate limiting, cost optimization, and simplified infrastructure management. Cloudflare AI Gateway is intended for engineering teams maintaining production-grade AI applications that rely on distributed LLM ecosystems. It is particularly effective for organizations seeking to implement a "cache-first" strategy for LLM interactions to optimize both performance (latency) and budget (token costs).
