About

ReqKey adds API key authentication, usage credits, rate limiting and request analytics to an API you own. Your own middleware makes a single verify call per incoming request: ReqKey validates the caller’s key, deducts a credit from that consumer’s pool, enforces their rate limit, and records the request with status code, latency and location. It never sits in front of your API — no proxy, no gateway, no DNS change — so it adds no hop to your critical path. Validation averages under 5ms. Credits pool per consumer rather than per key, so issuing a customer a second key does not hand them a second quota, and balances stay synced across regions. Also included: shadow limits, controlled overage, reusable plans, low-credit alerts, and per-request logs filterable by endpoint, status, consumer and time range. ReqKey meters and tracks usage — you keep your own billing stack. SDKs for Python, Node.js, Go, Rust, PHP, .NET and Java, with framework adapters for FastAPI, Express, Django, and more.

About

Tokonomics is an AI cost metering proxy that sits between your app and any LLM provider. One URL change gives you real-time cost tracking, budget alerts, and hard spending caps across OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, Google Gemini, Mistral, Groq, and more. How it works: Replace your LLM base URL with Tokonomics, keep your existing code. Every API call is logged with token counts, cost (8-decimal USD precision), latency, and custom tags for per-team or per-feature attribution. Key features: - Budget alerts via email, Slack, or Teams at configurable thresholds - Hard spending caps that block requests when monthly budget is exceeded - Analytics dashboard with spend-by-model, daily trends, and cost optimization reports - BYOK (Bring Your Own Keys) with AES-256 encryption - Rate limiting per API key - Works with any language or HTTP client (PHP, Python, Node.js, Go, Ruby)
