| Fact | LLM Gateway | Polyrouter |
|---|---|---|
| Integrations | Published integration guides cover Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, n8n, VS Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode, Continue, Kilo Code, Kimi Code and other coding tools. | Provider options include API keys, OAuth subscriptions, compatible custom endpoints, and self-hosted local models including Ollama, LM Studio, and llama.cpp. |
| Product | LLM Gateway provides one OpenAI-compatible API to route requests across 250+ models from 40+ providers. | Polyrouter is an open-source LLM gateway that puts one endpoint in front of multiple model providers. |
| Routing | The gateway can retry up to twice with another provider for the same model when a provider errors, times out, or rate-limits a request. | It supports explicit model selection, header rules, routing tiers, and optional automatic routing layers. |
| Security | The company states that it is SOC 2 Type II audited and GDPR-aligned, and describes TLS in transit and AES-256 encryption at rest. | Provider and notification credentials are encrypted at rest, and user-supplied URLs are checked against private and metadata address ranges. |
| Support | The Free plan lists Discord Community support, while Enterprise includes 24/7 priority support through a dedicated Slack or Discord channel. | The maker directs bug reports, feature requests, and questions to GitHub. |
