API Mom

API Mom: The Global API Traffic Controller

API Mom is a high-performance, cost-aware API router and governor built for the agentic era. It provides a single, unified entry point for all upstream AI providers and internal microservices.

Core Features

• Unified Routing: Route through one endpoint to Gemini, Anthropic, OpenAI, and more.
• Cost Attribution: Track every token spent at the project, function, and user level.
• Durable Caching: Built-in KV caching for idempotent requests.
• Budget Guardrails: Set hard limits on spend per project to prevent runaway costs.

Quick Example

import { createApiMom } from "@apimom/client";

const mom = createApiMom({
  API_MOM_KEY: process.env.API_MOM_KEY,
  API_MOM_PROJECT: "docs-demo"
});

// Route through Gemini with automatic budget tracking
const response = await mom.child("gemini").post("/v1beta/models/gemini-2.0-flash:generateContent", {
  contents: [{ parts: [{ text: "Hello, API Mom!" }] }]
});

Architecture

API Mom runs on the Cloudflare Edge, ensuring sub-10ms latency for routing decisions. It integrates seamlessly with Scramjet for pipeline-driven workflows.
