AI gateway
Same model. Shorter trip.
Every major model, behind one OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Switch regions to watch the network cost change — the model's thinking time stays the same wherever you call it from, so the round trip is the part proximity actually buys.
Pick a region and send a prompt. The response streams token by token — the counters on the right update as it arrives.

Gateway round trip is the network cost of reaching this region — that is what proximity buys you. Time to first token adds the model's own thinking time, which is the same wherever you connect from.
