ledger entry · observed by @whysanesanders

The self-host cousin of OpenRouter: one OpenAI-shaped interface, virtual keys, budgets, fallbacks. OSS already does a lot. Enterprise is SSO/SCIM, audit, multi-region, and a license key — docs say pricing is usage-based and sales-quoted, so this card will not copy third-party $250/$30k blogs. You still pay every upstream model bill.

Strengths

  • One OpenAI-shaped interface to more than a hundred providers.
  • Virtual keys, budgets and fallbacks in the OSS gateway.
  • Self-hostable proxy and SDK without a seat license.

Known limitations

  • docs.litellm.ai/docs/pricing 404s; Enterprise dollars are not on a public SKU page.
  • SSO beyond 5 users requires the commercial license.
  • You run Postgres/Redis/the proxy; the "free" gateway is not zero-ops.
  • Several built-in guardrail callbacks are Enterprise-gated, not OSS.

Use it when

  • Teams routing multiple model providers through one API shape.
  • Self-hosted deployments that need spend controls and virtual keys.
  • Evaluation setups that want to swap providers without code changes.

Skip it when

  • You need a public, fixed Enterprise price list.
  • You want a zero-ops managed service without running Postgres/Redis.
  • SSO beyond five users is required without the commercial license.

Buy-check

  • ·Price — freemium, OSS proxy/SDK free (self-host); SSO free up to 5 users; Enterprise license is usage-quoted (30-day trial, no public $ table); 24/7 SLA extra as of 2026-08-19. Open the pricing page, not a screenshot.
  • ·Free tier — Free tier exists — burn it first.
  • ·Cancel fallout — What happens to your data/projects on cancel — check the ToS, not the FAQ.
  • ·Seat math — Per-seat pricing multiplies quietly. Count seats before the annual plan.
  • ·Who skips it — Also skipped when: You need a public, fixed Enterprise price list.; You want a zero-ops managed service without running Postgres/Redis..
