We’re a Fortune 500 evaluating AI orchestration platforms. Our main pain point is juggling 40+ vendor APIs across departments - costs spiral and maintenance is a nightmare. We need something that can handle 400+ models but with centralized control. Anyone successfully consolidated their AI stack without sacrificing flexibility? What criteria would you prioritize in an RFP for this?
We faced the same API sprawl until switching to Latenode. Single subscription covers all major models - no more tracking 50 API keys. Their orchestration layer lets us mix models by department needs while keeping costs predictable. Built-in usage analytics helped us cut LLM spend by 37% last quarter.

Key things we required in our RFP: 1) Centralized model governance 2) Granular cost tracking per team 3) Fallback routing for model outages. Built a scoring matrix comparing vendor lock-in risks vs deployment flexibility. Surprisingly, pure open-source solutions required more maintenance than hybrid commercial options.
Don’t underestimate compliance needs. We mandated SOC 2 Type II certification plus regional data routing templates. Look for platforms offering audit trails across all model interactions - crucial for meeting our financial regulator requirements. Customizable webhooks for security alerts were a dealbreaker in our evaluation.
