Capabilities

What it does

Smart Routing

Routes between cloud, TEE-verified, and local providers based on quality, cost, and uptime. Pick router/smart, router/cheap, router/quality, or router/privacy.

Neural PII Redaction

OpenAI's Privacy Filter strips names, emails, phones, addresses, and secrets before any prompt reaches inference.

Privacy-First Options

Route sensitive traffic to TEE-verified (confidential compute) or EU-hosted providers. The router falls back automatically if a provider goes down.

Request Logging

Full audit trail — provider, model, latency, token counts, redaction count, and status for every request.

API Key Management

Create and revoke router API keys. Stored as HMAC hashes — the raw key is shown once on creation.

Live Status

Monitors each backend every hour. Uptime history and latency are visible on this page.
