When every team in the enterprise wants access to Generative AI, IT and Platform Engineering are left dealing with "Shadow AI." Teams bypass procurement, share raw API keys in Slack, and drive up massive, untraceable cloud bills.
Hyperion restores order. As the centralized AI Gateway, all internal LLM traffic must flow through Hyperion, bringing visibility, security, and strict financial controls to your internal tooling.
Taming the API Bill
The most common failure mode of internal AI adoption is a lack of financial guardrails. A rogue script by a junior engineer can easily rack up a $5,000 bill over a weekend.
Departmental Limits
Assign strict budget ceilings per project, environment (Dev/Prod), or department. Once the "Marketing AI Tool" hits its $500 monthly cap, the gateway safely returns a 429 error, preventing budget overruns.
Chargeback Reporting
Stop paying the OpenAI bill from the generic IT budget. Hyperion accurately measures blended token costs across providers, allowing you to charge specific business units for their exact AI utilization.
Identity & Single Sign-On (SSO)
Managing long-lived API keys is a massive security risk. Hyperion integrates directly with your corporate Identity Provider (IdP) such as Okta, Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD), or Google Workspace.
Developers log into the internal portal via SSO and generate short-lived, scoped Virtual Keys. If a developer leaves the company, their access to the underlying LLM providers is automatically revoked the moment their SSO account is deactivated.
"Before Hyperion, we had 40 different OpenAI keys floating around in source code. Now, we have one secure connection to OpenAI, and all teams authenticate through the gateway using Okta. The visibility is night and day."— VP of Platform Engineering, Fortune 500 SaaS
Role-Based Model Routing
Not all internal tools require the cognitive overhead of the most expensive models. Using Hyperion's routing policies, you can enforce model downgrades based on the user's role. For instance, internal wiki searches can be explicitly rewritten by the gateway to use `Llama-3-8B-Instruct`, while complex data analysis pipelines invoked by senior data scientists are allowed passage to `Claude 3.5 Sonnet`.
Internal Tools FAQs
Common questions about budgets, SSO, and chargebacks.
Hyperion provides granular 'Chargeback' analytics. By requiring departments to authenticate their requests via specific Virtual Keys or SSO tokens, the gateway tags all token expenditures by department, allowing you to easily generate CSV cost-allocation reports at the end of the month.
