Curate-Me is an AI gateway that sits between your app and LLM providers. You get cost tracking, rate limiting, PII scanning, and model governance — zero code changes.

1. Create Your Account

2. Swap Your Base URL

Replace your LLM provider’s base URL with the Curate-Me gateway. Each provider has its own path:


# Before (direct to OpenAI):
OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.openai.com/v1
 
# After (through Curate-Me gateway):
OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.curate-me.ai/v1/openai
 
# Or use OpenRouter for access to 200+ models:
OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.curate-me.ai/v1/openrouter

3. Add Your Gateway Key

Include your X-CM-API-Key header in every request:


curl https://api.curate-me.ai/v1/openrouter/chat/completions \
  -H "X-CM-API-Key: cm_sk_xxx" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "anthropic/claude-haiku-4-5",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
  }'

You can also pass a provider key explicitly with the X-Provider-Key header, or store it in the dashboard so every request uses it automatically.

4. Check Your Dashboard

Visit dashboard.curate-me.ai to see:

Request logs and latency
Cost tracking per model
Governance policy status
Rate limit usage

5. Configure Governance

Your account starts with sensible defaults:

Policy	Default
Rate limit	100 req/min
Daily budget	$10/day
PII scanning	Enabled (block)
HITL threshold	$5/request

Customize these in Gateway Settings → Policies in your dashboard.
