AI routing infrastructure

One gateway.
Every model.

A control layer between your AI tools, coding agents and model providers.

Routing

Stop hardcoding your AI stack.

BlackRiver Gateway gives teams one endpoint for many providers. Requests can be routed by cost, model capability, quota, latency, availability or internal policy.

When one provider fails, hits limits or becomes too expensive for the task, the gateway can move traffic without forcing every tool to be reconfigured.

01

Subscription first

Use the accounts and subscriptions your team already pays for before sending traffic elsewhere.

02

Fallback routing

Move requests to alternative providers when rate limits, outages or quota exhaustion hit.

03

Cost control

Select models based on task value instead of always defaulting to premium endpoints.

Tools

Built for the tools teams actually use.

Coding agents

Claude Code, Codex, Cursor

Route coding traffic through one controlled layer.

AI workflows

Agents, Cline, OpenCode

Avoid brittle one-provider workflows.

Providers

OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini

Keep optionality between major model ecosystems.

Deployment

Local, remote or private

Run where your security and operational model requires.

Architecture

One endpoint. Many decisions.

The gateway exposes an OpenAI-compatible API surface while routing traffic to multiple provider backends behind the scenes.

gateway.js
const client = new OpenAI({
  baseURL: "https://gateway.blackriver.ai/v1",
  apiKey: process.env.BLACKRIVER_GATEWAY_KEY,
});

const response = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: "auto:code",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Refactor this module" }],
});

// Gateway decides:
// provider, model, fallback, quota, cost, policy.

Enterprise

From developer router to company control layer.

Policy-aware routing

Define allowed providers, model tiers and fallback behavior by team, tool or project.

Usage visibility
