LLM Gateway with Empryo

LLM Gateway (llmgateway.io) puts many model providers behind one account and one API, with cost tracking and failover. Empryo has LLM Gateway login built in: run /login, approve in your browser, and the key is saved for you, with no copying. You can pay as you go with credits, or use DevPass, a fixed-price monthly plan. Once you are signed in, you can use any of its models in any task-router slot.

What you get

Example models

  • claude-sonnet-4-6
  • claude-haiku-4-5
  • gpt-5.5
  • gemini-3.1-pro
  • 200+ more

When to use it

Use LLM Gateway when you want to route work across model providers through one account, with a shared balance or a DevPass plan.

Set it up

Sign in from the browserLink to this section

You don't need to copy a key from a dashboard. In the terminal:

bash
empryo   # then type /login

/login opens your browser on the LLM Gateway dashboard, which mints a key and hands it straight back to Empryo over a local loopback. It lands in your OS keychain and models are available immediately (Ctrl+L to pick one). In the desktop app the same flow lives under Settings → Keys → LLM Gateway.

Two ways to pay, both built inLink to this section

  • Account credits, pay-as-you-go top-ups (/login). You pay provider rates plus a small platform fee, no subscription.
  • DevPass subscription, a flat plan billed per request instead of per token (/login llmgateway-devpass). The desktop Keys panel shows both options side by side.

Already have a key? The classic path works too:

bash
empryo --set-key llmgateway <your-key>

Why it pairs well with EmpryoLink to this section

  • One login, many models. Mix providers across task-router slots (for example a fast research model and a stronger coding or review model) without managing several accounts.
  • Failover. If one upstream provider has problems, the gateway can send the request elsewhere.
  • Two views of cost. The gateway tracks spend per model, and Empryo shows spend per session, so you can check one against the other.

Keys or subscriptions

LLM Gateway connects the way marked below. You can mix ways across task-router slots.

  • API keyPaste a key once. Empryo keeps it in your system keychain, and you pay the provider for what you use.
  • Sign inLLM GatewayApprove Empryo in your browser and use a plan or credits you already have. There is no key to copy.
  • On your machineRun open models on your own computer. No key, no per-token bill, and nothing has to leave your machine.
  • Any compatible APIOne block of JSON config turns any OpenAI-compatible endpoint into a provider, including your own server.
