Call AI from your app without exposing keys.

Give every project a hosted backend URL. Your browser or mobile app sends end-user sessions; Switchboard keeps provider credentials, auth checks, and usage controls off the client.

Client app

Hosted backend

AI + billing

Backend-free AI

One hosted layer for the work your app should not own.

Replace the proxy server, key storage, customer sessions, and billing checks that usually sit between a frontend and an AI provider.

API-key-free clients

No provider keys in your app

Ship a project backend URL to browsers and mobile apps, not OpenAI or Anthropic secrets.

Frontend env

Safe to bundle

No secret key in the client

Provider keys stay on Switchboard.
Abuse gates happen before model calls.

Backend-free integration

No proxy server to build

Hosted auth, streaming AI calls, rate limits, and usage tracking are already wired together.

Project backend URL

Safe for client apps

Session check
Model request
Your app calls one managed endpoint.

Monetization built in

Charge for usage when ready

Start with secure AI calls, then add developer-paid usage, customer checkout, or credit wallets without replacing the integration.

Billing gate

Before each AI call

402

Paid session active
Usage ledger tracked
Checkout ready Stripe

Frontend teams should not become backend teams.

The normal path to AI features turns into secret storage, proxy routes, auth, rate limits, token metering, and Stripe events.

Switchboard gives client apps a managed backend instead.

Build it yourself

A simple AI button becomes production infrastructure.

Keys
Proxy
Billing

More backend than feature.

Use Switchboard

One hosted backend URL covers the critical path.

Auth
AI calls
Checkout

Client app stays clean.

Everything needed to run AI without your own backend.

Switchboard connects client sessions, model providers, usage controls, and billing in one hosted path.

Hosted backend

One project URL for browser and mobile AI calls.

End-user sessions

Authenticate users without handing them provider credentials.

Stripe billing

Add checkout when usage should become revenue.

Usage dashboard

Track requests, cost, billing status, and limits.

Stripe cannot hide your API keys for you.

Billing starts after you know who the user is, whether they can call the model, and how much the request cost. Switchboard handles that path before usage reaches Stripe.

AI request
Switchboard
Stripe

Client sessions, model access, metering, and Stripe usage events stay in one hosted path.

Build your product, not an AI backend.

Replace the server you would normally write just to protect keys, identify users, stream responses, meter tokens, and block unpaid usage.

One managed layer

Hosted auth, secure AI calls, streaming, metering, billing gates, and analytics.

Secret storage
Backend proxy
Customer sessions
Stripe usage events
Rate limits
Model price tables
Streaming adapters
Billing reconciliation

One hosted backend for AI apps

Built for client-first AI products.
