Deploy and Host Portkey AI Gateway on Railway

Portkey AI Gateway is a small, fast AI gateway that gives one OpenAI-compatible API in front of many LLM providers, with fallbacks, retries and load balancing.

About Hosting Portkey AI Gateway

This template runs the official portkeyai/gateway:latest image. The gateway stores no secrets: provider API keys are sent by your clients with each request (or via Portkey headers), so nothing needs to be configured at deploy time. Open the public URL for the gateway page and point your OpenAI-compatible client at https:///v1.

Common Use Cases

One endpoint for OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini and many other providers
Automatic fallbacks and retries between models
Request routing and load balancing for LLM apps

Dependencies for Portkey AI Gateway Hosting

One stateless service; nothing else

Why Deploy Portkey AI Gateway on Railway?

Railway gives you a public HTTPS URL, persistent storage where needed and automatic restarts with no server to maintain. Point your app at the Railway URL instead of the provider URL.
