AI Control Plane — LLM routing and governance

Eval, routing, cost controls, and governance for every LLM call in your stack.

Get a scoping call

As your product ships more LLM features, you need a layer that sits above individual model calls: a place to route by cost and latency, run evals automatically, catch quality regressions, and give finance a real cost number. AI Control Plane is that layer — built on your infrastructure, not a third-party SaaS you're locked into.

What we build

01
Unified LLM gateway

Single proxy layer for OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Bedrock, and local models — swap providers with a config change.

02
Smart routing

Route calls by latency budget, cost cap, task type, or model capability. A/B test prompts without touching application code.

03
Eval pipelines

Automated quality checks on every response: faithfulness, toxicity, format compliance, and domain-specific rubrics.

04
Cost attribution

Token usage and cost broken down by feature, team, and customer. Showback reports and budget alert thresholds.

05
Rate limiting & failover

Per-tenant and per-feature rate limits with automatic provider failover and circuit breakers.

How we Deliver

Week 1
Audit & design
Inventory existing LLM calls, map cost and quality requirements, and design the gateway architecture.
Week 2–3
Gateway & routing
Proxy deployment, provider integrations, routing rules, and rate limiting. All existing calls migrated behind the gateway.
Week 4–5
Evals & observability
Eval pipeline setup, Grafana dashboards, cost attribution, and alerting rules for quality and spend regressions.
Week 6
Handover
Runbook, team training, cost baseline report, and 30-day support SLA for post-launch issues.

Best practices for AI Control Plane

  • Route every LLM call through the gateway from day one

    Retrofitting a proxy into an existing codebase is significantly harder than starting with it. The earlier you standardize, the easier observability becomes.

  • Set cost alert thresholds before going to production

    Unmonitored LLM spend surprises finance before it surprises engineering. Budget alerts cost nothing to configure and save real money.

  • Treat model changes as config, not code

    Hardcoding provider names and model IDs in application code creates coupling that makes A/B testing and failover painful.

  • Run evals on 100% of traffic in staging

    Sampling in staging hides systematic failures. Reserve sampling for production where volume makes full coverage impractical.

“We don't ship AI without an eval harness. Not because clients ask — because it's the only way to know the system is actually working in production.”

FAQ

Is this a SaaS product or something we own?
You own it. We deploy it to your infrastructure — AWS, GCP, or your private cloud. No vendor lock-in, no monthly SaaS seat fees.
How long does it take to migrate existing LLM calls?
For most stacks, the gateway is drop-in: change one base URL. We handle the migration in week 2 with zero downtime.
What eval frameworks do you use?
We support RAGAS, DeepEval, and custom rubric-based evaluators depending on your use case. Eval results stream into your existing dashboards.
