Before the next model call

AI Gateway checks model access, rate limits and the applicable budget.

One budget
An explicit next step

Apply limits by organization, team, user, or model. The runtime checks applicable budgets before the model call and follows your configured policy.

  1. 1

    Allow an overage

    Continue the call and record usage above the cap.

  2. 2

    Alert the owner

    Notify the budget owner while calls continue.

  3. 3

    Hold for approval

    Pause further calls for human approval.

  4. 4

    Block new calls

    Stop until the budget is raised or resets.

Follow spend
back to the work

Request-level attribution connects cost to a person, team, department, cost center, agent, model, and provider. Review totals without losing the context behind them.

Runtime metering supports control and allocation. Provider invoices remain the billing record.
