Merge's Cookie Policy outlines the use of cookies to enhance user experience on their site, with the acceptance of cookies implying consent to their Privacy Policy. The text compares two AI gateway platforms, TrueFoundry and OpenRouter, highlighting their respective strengths and weaknesses. TrueFoundry offers deep infrastructure control and enterprise-grade governance, but has a steep pricing jump and lacks customer-level cost attribution. OpenRouter, in contrast, provides a broader model catalog and generous pricing, but lacks self-hosting options and key security features on its free tier. Merge Gateway is introduced as an alternative, offering a unified API for routing and monitoring LLM usage, with features like per-customer cost attribution and built-in protection, aiming to provide a comprehensive solution for AI governance and integration management.
