Why people use Portkey
Portkey LLM Cost Management for Enterprise Teams
This Connector puts that data into your agent's hands. You can ask for a cost summary, check for policy violations, or export logs for an audit without ever leaving your chat interface. You get a single source of truth for your entire AI infrastructure.
What Vinkius changes
You move from manual dashboard clicking to natural language commands for your entire LLM infrastructure.
Use it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or another AI client you already have.

Before you connect
Questions about Portkey.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Can the Portkey MCP help me track my AI spending?
Yes, it connects to your gateway to show real-time costs and token usage across all your models.
How does Portkey MCP manage my API keys?
It uses virtual keys to let you manage provider keys in one place while tracking usage limits.
Can I use Portkey MCP to set spending limits?
You can create and manage budget policies to cap how much specific teams or projects can spend.
How do I debug failed AI requests with Portkey MCP?
Your agent can pull detailed logs and traces for specific interactions to see exactly what went wrong.
Can Portkey MCP export my data for audits?
Yes, it can generate export IDs for your logs so you can perform offline compliance checks.
Does Portkey MCP support multiple LLM providers?
It provides a unified view for all your providers, including OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google.
Which LLM providers does Portkey support?
Portkey supports 1,600+ LLMs including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, Cohere, Hugging Face, and many more. Use the list_models capability to see the full catalog available via your gateway.
How does Portkey help control AI costs?
Portkey provides granular visibility into token usage, latency, and costs per model, team, or virtual key. You can create budget policies with hard limits to prevent runaway spending. The gateway also supports caching to reduce duplicate calls and fallbacks to cheaper models when appropriate.
Can I track feedback on AI responses?
Yes! Portkey allows you to submit Like/Dislike feedback for any logged LLM call. This data helps improve model selection, evaluate agent performance, and build RLHF datasets for fine-tuning.
