About Manifest

Manifest is an open-source LLM router for AI agents and applications. It places subscription accounts, usage-based API keys, local models, and custom endpoints behind one OpenAI-compatible and Anthropic-compatible endpoint. You can assign a default model or route requests by header, then configure fallbacks for provider failures and rate limits. Per-agent spending caps and the dashboard expose model choice, token use, cost, and timestamps. Manifest Cloud starts with a $0 plan that includes 10,000 routed requests per month, seven days of dashboard retention, unlimited agents, Auto-fix, and budget alerts. Pro costs $19 per month, removes the routed-request limit, and retains dashboard data for 365 days. Enterprise adds seats, team management, SSO or SAML, audit logs, custom retention, an uptime SLA, and compliance options. Docker self-hosting is available when a team needs to run the stack on its own infrastructure. Provider charges remain separate, Free has a monthly request ceiling, and Manifest describes Pro as unsuitable for teams.

Best for

Solo developers prototyping agents across several model providers
Production builders who need longer routing history and unlimited requests
Organizations that require seats, SSO, audit logs, and contractual support

Best use cases

A provider rate limit interrupts an agent run and a fallback model should take over

Several applications need one compatible endpoint for subscriptions, API keys, and local models

A project needs per-agent cost caps and a dashboard record of model usage

Compare before choosing

Choose Manifest when routing flexibility matters more than using one provider directly

Compare cloud hosting with self-hosting when prompt handling and infrastructure control affect approval

Check the Free request cap and Pro team limitation before replacing a team-oriented gateway

Features

Agent provider routing

Use one endpoint and select a default model or a request-header routing tier.

Provider failover

Move requests to fallback models when a provider or selected model fails.

Spend control and review

Set per-agent limits and see model choice, token use, cost, and timestamps.

Pros

  • The $0 cloud plan includes 10,000 routed requests per month and unlimited agents.
  • OpenAI-compatible and Anthropic-compatible endpoints reduce integration changes across supported clients.
  • Docker self-hosting gives infrastructure-conscious teams an alternative to the hosted cloud service.

Cons

  • The Free plan limits routing to 10,000 requests per month and keeps dashboard data for seven days.
  • The $19 Pro plan is explicitly described as unsuitable for teams, pushing team features to Enterprise.
  • Provider API or subscription charges remain separate, so the router does not make model usage itself free.

FAQ

It connects subscriptions, usage-based API keys, local models, and custom endpoints through compatible OpenAI and Anthropic URLs.
Yes. The full stack can run with Docker and can use the bundled PostgreSQL service or your own PostgreSQL database.
Manifest pricing adds no token markup, but provider and subscription costs still apply separately.
