Brands to know
In this category
Cloudflare AI Gateway
Scores 72 and posted a 6-point rise, the only vendor showing upward momentum. Cloudflare's edge-network distribution likely accelerates adoption for latency-sensitive AI workloads.
Read brand profile →Portkey
Sits at 66, mid-pack. No trend delta reported, suggesting flat citation velocity. Portkey markets observability and multi-provider routing; stable score implies steady but not expanding interest.
Read brand profile →Kong AI Gateway
Scores 63, just below category average. Kong entered AI gateways as an extension of its API-management platform, so incumbency in adjacent tooling may anchor citations without breakthrough growth.
Read brand profile →LiteLLM
Trails at 41, 19 points below the category mean. Open-source positioning and Python-native design appeal to developers, but low score hints at weak enterprise traction or narrow use-case fit.
