Execute via Gruvo

Unified Endpoint

Connect through Gruvo with OpenAI-compatible client libraries. Gruvo translates requests, manages provider streaming, and applies caching automatically.

import OpenAI from "openai";

// Configure client with Gruvo's unified AI gateway
const gruvo = new OpenAI({
  baseURL: "https://api.gruvo.ai/v1",
  apiKey: process.env.GRUVO_API_KEY,
  defaultHeaders: {
    "X-Gruvo-Provider": "anthropic",
  },
});

const completion = await gruvo.chat.completions.create({
  model: "claude-opus-4.6",
  messages: [
    { role: "system", content: "You are a production reasoning assistant." },
    { role: "user", content: "Analyze the architecture of our service." },
  ],
  temperature: 0.2,
});

console.log(completion.choices[0].message.content);

Automatic Failover & Routing

If Anthropic suffers an unexpected outage or rate limit (HTTP 429), Gruvo can automatically route in-flight requests to equivalent tier models:
