Useful for
- Multi-model access
Strengths & trade-offs
Where it shines
- One API key and one schema reach hundreds of models (OpenAI, Anthropic, open weights)
- Easy per-model price/latency comparison and fallback routing
- Great for avoiding vendor lock-in at the model layer
Watch out for
- Adds a small markup and an extra hop vs calling providers directly
- Provider-side features (caching, beta endpoints) can lag the original APIs
