# Zuplo

A unified gateway for APIs, AI, and MCP, selling auth, rate limits, spend caps, and audit on one programmable policy engine to frontend and full-stack developers, platform engineers, and AI/agent builders.

**Route:** surfaced by the AI Development and Deployment Infrastructure lane's de-branded queries → competitor to vercel.com.

**Why it's on the map:** Sells the same unified API gateway / AI gateway capability to the same developers, platform engineers, and AI/agent builders — including LLM routing, spend caps, MCP governance, and per-key rate limits — that a buyer evaluating Vercel would shortlist for both outbound model calls and inbound agent traffic.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> Zuplo is the unified gateway for APIs and AI — one programmable policy engine for the models your apps call and the agents that call you.

> Auth, rate limits, spend caps, and audit run on one programmable policy engine — turn on the surfaces you need without adding a vendor.
