Portkey is a platform for managing, observing, and governing generative AI across teams. Its gateway offers a unified API for models and providers across modalities, with configurable routing, failovers, retries, and load balancing. Monitoring tools include logs, traces, feedback, metadata, filters, and alerts; prompt management adds templates, a playground, API endpoints, versioning, and variables. Listed integrations include OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Azure, Amazon Bedrock, and Ollama, as well as agent frameworks including CrewAI, LangChain, LangGraph, and the OpenAI Agents SDK. The gateway offers simple and semantic caching for repeat requests. Security features include virtual provider keys, access controls, inbound IP and geographic rules, and sensitive-data redaction. Self-hosted and local deployment options are listed, while Enterprise adds private cloud deployment and VPC hosting. Developer is free and includes 10k recorded logs/month, 3 days log retention, and 30 days metrics retention. Production costs $49 a month, billed $49/month, with 100k recorded logs/month and production support. Enterprise pricing is custom. Portkey lists San Francisco as its headquarters and March 2023 as its launch date.

Promptfoo helps developers and enterprises evaluate prompts and test AI applications for security risks. It compares prompt outputs across multiple models in a web view. Red-team testing simulates users to look for prompt injections, jailbreaks, data leaks, business rule violations and insecure agent tool use. Its getting-started guide lists more than 60 providers, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and local models such as Ollama. Integrations include CI systems such as GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Azure Pipelines, CircleCI and Bitbucket Pipelines, plus Splunk, Burp Suite, Google Sheets and MCP. Installation is available through npm, npx or Homebrew. Promptfoo requires Node.js 22.22.0 or newer and recommends Node.js 24 LTS. The free Community plan includes all LLM evaluation features and 10k red-team probes per month, and can run locally or be self-hosted. Enterprise includes managed cloud deployment; On-Premise runs on customer infrastructure. Promptfoo says it is based in San Francisco, is now part of OpenAI and remains open source.
