Requesty is an LLM gateway: point an application’s base URL at router.requesty.ai instead of a single provider, and it intelligently routes across more than 30 providers and 600-plus models by cost, latency or availability, with automatic failover, load balancing and prompt caching claimed to cut token costs by up to 90%. Enterprise features cover role-based access control and PII masking, with real-time observability dashboards throughout. It reports 70,000-plus developers processing more than 90 billion tokens a day.
Stating the markup outright – 5% on model costs – is the detail worth crediting. Every gateway in this category charges something for the routing layer; most bury it in a rate card rather than saying the number plainly, and a stated flat percentage is easier to model against your own usage than an opaque per-model price list. Being a drop-in replacement for the OpenAI SDK with a single base-URL change is also the right integration shape – migrating an existing application should not require rewriting the client code.
Routing traffic through a third party between your application and the model provider is a real dependency to weigh: an outage at Requesty is an outage for every model behind it, not just one, and PII masking is worth confirming works exactly as you need before routing anything sensitive through it rather than assuming from the feature name. $10 in free credits is enough to test the failover behaviour before committing production traffic to it.
