Built for Speed, Security, and Scale

↓ no database on hot path!

Gateway: The Speed

Sub-millisecond Latency

We don't query the database on every request. Your routes are compiled into an atomic in-memory router, giving you O(1) lookups and blazing fast response times. Includes AI bot blocking and flexible path rewriting out of the box.

Secrets: Zero-Knowledge

3-Tier Encryption

Secure your environment variables using our AES-256-GCM and RSA-OAEP sealed transport. Plaintext secrets never leave your machine during transit or rest. Easily inject them into your app via the CLI.

Audit: Total Visibility

Immutable Trails

Keep track of every configuration change, secret retrieval, and administrative action. With immutable logs and 90-day retention, you are always ready for compliance audits.

Trusted by innovative engineering teams

Protect your API. Protect your Bill.

Our modules work together to ensure your infrastructure is secure and your cloud costs are predictable.

  • Stop Leaked Secrets

    Keep API keys out of your source code and out of plain text in transit.

  • Filter viral traffic

    Detect surges and block LLM bots before they hit your serverless bill.

  • Cap your usage

    Set a "Virtual Limit" on your expensive serverless functions.
