LiteLLM AI Gateway

Open Source AI Gateway for 100+ LLMs. Self-hosted. Enterprise-ready. Call any LLM in OpenAI format.

What is LiteLLM

LiteLLM is an open source AI Gateway that gives you a single, unified interface to call 100+ LLM providers — OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Bedrock, Azure, and more — using the OpenAI format.

Use it as a Python SDK for direct library integration, or deploy the AI Gateway (Proxy Server) as a centralized service for your team or organization.

Why LiteLLM

Managing LLM calls across providers gets complicated fast — different SDKs, auth patterns, request formats, and error types for every model. LiteLLM removes that friction:

• Unified API — one interface for 100+ LLMs, no provider-specific SDK juggling
• Drop-in OpenAI compatibility — swap providers without rewriting your code
• Production-ready gateway — virtual keys, spend tracking, guardrails, load balancing, and an admin dashboard out of the box
• 8ms P95 latency at 1k RPS (benchmarks)

Features

LLMs - Call 100+ LLMs (Python SDK + AI Gateway)

**All Supported Endpoints** - /chat/completions, /responses, /embeddings, /images, /audio, /batches, /rerank, /a2a, /messages and more.

Python SDK

uv add litellm

from litellm import completion
import os

os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "your-openai-key"
os.environ["ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"] = "your-anthropic-key"

# OpenAI
response = completion(model="openai/gpt-4o", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}])

# Anthropic
response = completion(model="anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}])

AI Gateway (Proxy Server)

**Getting Started - E2E Tutorial** - Setup virtual keys, make your first request

uv tool install 'litellm[proxy]'
litellm --model gpt-4o

import openai

client = openai.OpenAI(api_key="anything", base_url="http://0.0.0.0:4000")
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4o",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
)

**Docs: LLM Providers**

Agents - Invoke A2A Agents (Python SDK + AI Gateway)

**Supported Providers** - LangGraph, Vertex AI Agent Engine, Azure AI Foundry, Bedrock AgentCore, Pydantic AI

Python SDK - A2A Protocol

from litellm.a2a_protocol import A2AClient
from a2a.types import SendMessageRequest, MessageSendParams
from uuid import uuid4

client = A2AClient(base_url="http://localhost:10001")

request = SendMessageRequest(
id=str(uuid4()),
params=MessageSendParams(
message={
"role": "user",
"parts": [{"kind": "text", "text": "Hello!"}],
"messageId": uuid4().hex,
}
)
)
response = await client.send_message(request)

AI Gateway (Proxy Server)

Step 1. Add your Agent to the AI Gateway — set protocolVersion to 1.0 or 0.3 per agent

Step 2. Call Agent via A2A SDK (requires a2a-sdk>=1.1.0)

import httpx
from a2a.client import A2ACardResolver, ClientConfig, ClientFactory
from a2a.types import Message, Part, Role, SendMessageRequest
from a2a.utils.constants import TransportProtocol
from uuid import uuid4

base_url = "http://localhost:4000/a2a/my-agent" # LiteLLM proxy + agent name
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer "} # LiteLLM master key or a virtual key

async with httpx.AsyncClient(headers=headers, timeout=60.0) as http_client:
resolver = A2ACardResolver(httpx_client=http_client, base_url=base_url)
agent_card = await resolver.get_agent_card()
config = ClientConfig(
httpx_client=http_client,
streaming=False,
supported_protocol_bindings=[TransportProtocol.JSONRPC, TransportProtocol.HTTP_JSON],
)
client = ClientFactory(config).create(agent_card)

request = SendMessageRequest(
message=Message(
message_id=uuid4().hex,
role=Role.ROLE_USER,
parts=[Part(text="Hello!")],
)
)
async for event in client.send_message(request):
populated = event.ListFields()
if populated and populated[0][0].name in ("message", "msg"):
print("".join(getattr(p, "text", "") or "" for p in populated[0][1].parts))

MCP Tools - Connect MCP servers to any LLM (Python SDK + AI Gateway)

Python SDK - MCP Bridge

from mcp import ClientSession, StdioServerParameters
from mcp.client.stdio import stdio_client
from litellm import experimental_mcp_client
import litellm

server_params = StdioServerParameters(command="python", args=["mcp_server.py"])

async with stdio_client(server_params) as (read, write):
async with ClientSession(read, write) as session:
await session.initialize()

# Load MCP tools in OpenAI format
tools = await experimental_mcp_client.load_mcp_tools(session=session, format="openai")

# Use with any LiteLLM model
response = await litellm.acompletion(
model="gpt-4o",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What's 3 + 5?"}],
tools=tools
)

AI Gateway - MCP Gateway

Step 1. Add your MCP Server to the AI Gateway

Step 2. Call MCP tools via /chat/completions

curl -X POST 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/v1/chat/completions' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer ' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"model": "gpt-4o",
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Summarize the latest open PR"}],
"tools": [{
"type": "mcp",
"server_url": "litellm_proxy/mcp/github",
"server_label": "github_mcp",...
