ngrok AI Gateway
ngrok AI Gateway provides traffic management and security for AI APIs including multi-provider routing, automatic failover, LLM prompt inspection, rate limiting, caching, observability, PII redaction, and access control. It enables teams to manage, secure, and monitor traffic to AI model providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek) and self-hosted models such as Ollama and vLLM through an OpenAI-compatible interface.
Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.
API Evangelist profiles ngrok AI Gateway the way a machine reads it — 28 machine-readable artifacts across 3 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — ngrok AI Gateway scores 49.1/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 48/100 (agent ready). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile ngrok AI Gateway
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for ngrok AI Gateway. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 3
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

The Anthropic API from ngrok AI Gateway — 1 operation(s) for anthropic.

Open Collections 1
Open, tool-agnostic collections carry the same runnable value as Postman without locking you to one client — the portable, forkable form of the same exercise.

OPEN COLLECTIONPricing Plans 1
Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.
Published pricing tiers and plan structures.
Rate Limits 1
Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.
Documented rate limits and quota policies.

RATE LIMITSFinOps 1
Cost, billing, and metering signals let a buyer model the financial operations of an API before it's live. We profile them for the same reason we profile pricing: the money is part of the contract.

Notable capabilities this provider offers.
Multi-Provider Routing
Direct requests to AI providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and DeepSeek through a single gateway endpoint.
Automatic Failover
If one provider or model fails, the gateway automatically tries the next configured model.
OpenAI SDK Compatibility
Works with official and third-party OpenAI SDKs by changing only the base URL.
Self-Hosted Model Support
Route requests to local systems such as Ollama or vLLM alongside hosted providers.
Automatic Model Selection
Use ngrok/auto for intelligent model picking based on configured strategies.
CEL-Based Selection Strategies
Define custom routing logic using Common Expression Language expressions.
Cost-Based Routing
Direct traffic to the cheapest available model option meeting requirements.
Access Control
Restrict which providers and models clients can use by API key, identity, or policy.
PII Redaction
Inspect and modify content to remove personally identifiable information from prompts and responses.
Response Sanitization
Modify and filter responses before they reach clients.
No Provider Account Required
Access OpenAI and Anthropic models without individual provider signup, using ngrok credits.

Security Posture 4
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals.
Agentic Access 1
An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
Recommended x-agentic-access execution contracts for AI agents.
