Platform Capabilities & Architecture

Every capability built for mission-critical AI.

Tanvelo proxies traffic between your applications and 147+ AI providers. If an upstream service experiences an outage or rate limit, requests fail over in sub-180ms. Budget ceilings prevent runaway loops, and conversation text is never stored on disk.

How Tanvelo handles every in-flight call

A high-availability proxy layer engineered to eliminate upstream failure modes without adding latency or storing user prompt text.

01

Unified Ingress

Call our OpenAI-compatible endpoint or official TypeScript/Python SDK. Route to any of 147+ AI models without disparate client libraries.

1-line drop-in baseURL change
02

Governance & Limits

Atomic Redis token-buckets enforce RPM/TPM limits, verify monthly spend caps, and stream responses in volatile memory.

Sub-ms atomic rate validation
03

Automated Failover

If an upstream provider returns 429 throttling or a 5xx crash, Tanvelo immediately catches it and completes via your backup model in sub-180ms.

Zero client connection drops

Core Architectural Capabilities

10 core features
Sub-180ms Latency

Automatic Outage Backup (Instant Failover)

Zero downtime during AI provider rate limits & crashes

Capability Overview

If an AI service like OpenAI or Claude slows down, crashes, or is overloaded, Tanvelo automatically switches your app to a backup AI model in less than a quarter of a second.

Production impact: Your users never see an error message or broken screen, and your business stays online 24/7.
147+ Models

147+ AI Models in One Account

Universal access to OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Groq, DeepSeek & more

Capability Overview

Access every major foundation model through a single OpenAI-compatible standard. Switch models or add providers in seconds without rewriting code.

Production impact: Zero vendor lock-in. When a faster, smarter, or cheaper model is released, deploy it immediately with zero infrastructure changes.
Self-Hosted & VPC

Connect Any Custom or Private AI

Plug in internal company servers, Ollama, vLLM, or custom models

Capability Overview

Route internal models running in your private data center or VPC alongside cloud providers with identical failover, rate limiting, and observability.

Production impact: Standardize governance across both proprietary internal models and commercial AI APIs in one control plane.
10-Day TTL Privacy

Sanitized Inspection & 10-Day Auto-Purge

Debug requests with in-flight secret redaction and automated TTL purge

Capability Overview

Inspect sanitized request and response bodies in your dashboard for debugging. Credentials and auth tokens are redacted in flight, and bodies are permanently purged after 10 days.

Production impact: Full developer observability without long-term data liability. Enforces GDPR compliance and data minimization.
AES-256-GCM

Encrypted Credential Vault (AES-256-GCM)

Authenticated encryption at rest protects all provider API keys

Capability Overview

Provider API keys are encrypted at rest with server-side authenticated ciphers and decrypted strictly in memory during outbound dispatch.

Production impact: Complete cryptographic security: keys are never exposed to browser clients or returned in API responses.
Spend Protection

Hard Monthly Budget Ceilings ($ USD)

Automated circuit-breakers prevent unexpected billing spikes

Capability Overview

Set strict dollar-denominated spend caps per project or API key. Once reached, requests are safely cut off before excess costs accrue.

Production impact: Protects against autonomous agent loops and accidental infinite recursions draining bank accounts.
Sub-ms Redis

Atomic Distributed Rate Limiting

Token-bucket rate enforcement backed by Redis Lua scripts

Capability Overview

Enforce requests-per-minute (RPM) and tokens-per-minute (TPM) across distributed instances with zero race conditions.

Production impact: Shields upstream provider accounts from sudden throttling and protects production service reliability.
Drop-in Swap

1-Line Drop-in Migration

Compatible with official OpenAI SDKs and agentic frameworks

Capability Overview

Point your existing OpenAI SDK baseURL to Tanvelo. No prompt refactoring or code rewrites required.

Production impact: Instant integration for existing applications built with LangChain, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, or CrewAI.
Official SDKs

Official TypeScript & Python SDKs

First-party client libraries with native typing and streaming

Capability Overview

Native SDKs published on npm and PyPI featuring built-in retries, automatic backoff, and full TypeScript typing.

Production impact: Guarantees developer ergonomics and type safety when building complex multi-model pipelines.
Live Analytics

Real-Time Telemetry & Latency Metrics

Sub-millisecond tracking across every provider and model

Capability Overview

Track response latency, HTTP status codes, and tokens across providers to identify performance bottlenecks.

Production impact: Pinpoint degrading providers and optimize your routing sequences based on real-world empirical performance.

Developer Controls & Governance

11 capabilities
Self-Healing

Active Circuit Breakers & Health Probing

Automatically fast-fails distressed upstream providers

When an AI provider suffers consecutive latency spikes or errors, Tanvelo trips an active circuit breaker to redirect traffic and safely probes for recovery.

Impact: Prevents cascading request timeouts from freezing client applications when an upstream provider degrades.
Deterministic

Deterministic Routing Cascades

Strictly ordered priority chains with zero black-box surprises

Tanvelo follows your exact fallback sequence in order. We never use opaque algorithms to route your traffic unpredictably.

Impact: Maintains complete predictability over output quality, response latency, and token expenditures.
Zero Downtime

Instant Model Hot-Swapping

Update primary and fallback models without redeploying code

Change default models and fallback sequences in real time directly from the console or API without application rebuilds.

Impact: Adopt new frontier models the moment they launch without waiting for engineering deploy cycles.
Salted Hashes

Cryptographic Gateway Keys (SHA-256)

Single-reveal credentials stored exclusively as irreversible hashes

Tanvelo gateway keys (tv_live_...) are displayed once upon generation. Only salted cryptographic hashes are retained in the database.

Impact: Eliminates credential leaks. Even in the event of an internal breach, raw keys cannot be recovered.
Egress Isolation

SSRF & Private Network Isolation

Protects internal cloud infrastructure from malicious traversal

Strict endpoint URL validation blocks Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) and insulates cloud metadata services.

Impact: Ensures custom provider integrations cannot be leveraged to probe internal VPC infrastructure.
Live Telemetry

Micro-Dollar Cost Telemetry

Real-time cost tracking split across prompt and completion tokens

Calculates exact cost per request in real time using updated official pricing schedules for all 147+ providers.

Impact: Eliminates billing ambiguity by attributing spend directly to specific projects, keys, and model choices.
Zero Markup

0% Token Markup (Direct Provider Billing)

Pay exact wholesale prices directly to upstream model providers

Tanvelo never marks up token prices or tacks on per-token platform fees. You pay providers directly at standard rates.

Impact: Saves 15% to 30% compared to aggregated model marketplaces that add surcharges to inference.
SSE Streaming

Real-Time Server-Sent Events (SSE)

Low-latency token streaming with seamless failover switching

Stream tokens back to client browsers with zero buffering. If primary model fails before emitting tokens, fallback stream engages automatically.

Impact: Delivers responsive chat interfaces while preserving uninterrupted uptime.
HMAC Webhooks

HMAC-SHA256 Webhook Notifications

Event-driven alerts for budget thresholds, rate limits, and outages

Receive signed notifications for budget thresholds, rate limit triggers, and failover events with automatic retries.

Impact: Enables proactive incident response and automated budget alerting in Slack, PagerDuty, or Discord.
Live Inspector

Sanitized Request Inspector

Debug headers, status codes, and token splits per request

Audit individual requests in the console with full visibility into provider choices, token splits, and latency.

Impact: Accelerates developer debugging without compromising data privacy standards.
99.99% Target

Real-Time Gateway Health & Status

Public status indicators backed by a 99.99% uptime target

Continuous gateway engine health monitoring visible across console footers and public status endpoints.

Impact: Complete transparency into core routing health and proxy reliability around the clock.
