hosted Otari.ai platform on the same core

Otari's gateway is Apache-2.0 and self-hostable via Docker Compose, and Mozilla AI's hosted Otari.ai platform runs on that same published code rather than on a separately licensed piece. A hosted convenience alongside a complete open core is not the same as gating: nothing in the source is withheld or paywalled.

  The runtime modes page says standalone "serves the full API, stores keys, budgets, and usage locally" and that "Multi-provider fallback is therefore available without otari.ai when you configure a policy."

  Apache-2.0; OpenAI-compatible gateway; self-host via Docker Compose

Otari's repository is very new and its star count remains low, so the adoption signal here is thin; no download, deployment or customer figure has appeared yet. Mozilla AI's any-llm library, which Otari is built on, has far more traction, but it is a separate product.

Otari is an OpenAI-compatible gateway to many providers behind one API, with virtual keys, per-user budgets, usage tracking and sandboxed server-side code execution.

  Launch post feature lists: "Virtual API keys: Hashed, named, optionally-expiring keys bound to a user", "Usage and spend tracking: Real-time cost calculation across providers", "Sandboxed code execution. A Docker-isolated Python REPL, invoked server-side when a model needs to run code", and "Per-user spending caps with configurable reset windows".
