Nexos Ai vs Portkey (2026)
Two governed AI gateways at 9.5 and 8 of 14, differing in who else uses them.
Portkey is platform team infrastructure: an LLM gateway with MCP Gateway support, audit logs, routing and enterprise security, free for development and 49 dollars a month for production, with an open source gateway underneath. nexos.ai adds a governed AI Workspace on top of its gateway, so employees chat and build reusable agents under guardrails and full logging, with plans for individuals and teams but no published rates. Portkey governs the traffic; nexos governs the traffic and the people generating it.
Choose Nexos Ai if
- Non engineering employees need a sanctioned place to use AI, and that is half the problem.
- Documented coverage is broader and RAG and caching come with the gateway.
- Reusable agents built by employees under guardrails is the outcome you want.
Choose Portkey if
- Published pricing at 49 dollars a month for production is how you want to buy infrastructure.
- MCP Gateway support is already part of your architecture.
- An open source gateway underneath gives you an exit if the commercial terms change.
