Leanroute
About Leanroute
Leanroute acts as an AI gateway that consolidates access to major large language model providers and Model Context Protocol servers through a single OpenAI-compatible endpoint. It allows organizations to route chat completions and other requests to providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, DeepSeek, Meta, Groq, Qwen, GLM, Doubao, Kimi, Sarvam, and Krutrim without rewriting code. The service supports native MCP forwarding, enabling models to connect to trusted MCP servers server-side and return responses in OpenAI format. Users can manage per-organization allowlists for MCP servers and control which providers and models are accessible. Leanroute offers two pricing models: a bring-your-own-keys subscription with flat monthly fees and zero per-request markup, or a prepaid credits system with a 5% platform fee at top-up. The gateway includes features like multi-account failover, spend caps, rate limits, and observability across all plans. It is designed for developers and teams building applications that require consistent access to multiple AI models and tools without managing separate integrations.
