Supercharge Your Native Ollama.
Ollama Gateway: Supercharge your native Ollama with enterprise-grade API authentication, request auditing, rate limiting, and virtual model management—your secure, private AI gateway.
Security and Auditing by Design.
Bearer Token Auth
Create multiple API keys for different users and applications, each with its own fine-grained permissions.
Clickhouse Auditing
Detailed auditing for every request and response, stored in high-performance Clickhouse storage for compliance.
Team Management
A built-in Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) system for managing your team's access to AI models.
Model Keep-alive
Periodically pings underlying models to ensure they stay loaded in memory for instant response times.
Default Model Support
Automatically redirect requests to a default virtual model if no model is specified in the API call.
Native Passthrough
Seamless support for native Ollama features including MCP tools, embedding, images, and stream mode.
Intelligent
Virtual Models
Create multiple aliases for your models with custom system prompts and parameter overrides.
Chat Models
Create virtual chat models with persistent system prompts.
Embedding Models
Dedicated management for embedding models for RAG applications.
Parameter Overrides
Override temperature, top_k, and other Ollama options per virtual model.
Perfect for Agent Deployment
OllamaGateway has been officially tested and is fully compatible with popular ecosystem tools including Claude Code, Open-WebUI, Opencode, and Roocode. Its robust API translation makes it the ideal choice for deploying autonomous AI agents.

Mix Any Client with Any Backend
OllamaGateway supports two inbound API formats (OpenAI & Ollama) and two backend provider types — in any combination. Your clients and physical models don't have to speak the same language.
OpenAI Client
→ OpenAI Backend
/v1/chat/completions
→ OpenAI-compatible provider
Ollama Client
→ OpenAI Backend
/api/chat
→ OpenAI-compatible provider
OpenAI Client
→ Ollama Backend
/v1/chat/completions

/api/chat

Anthropic Client
→ OpenAI Backend
/v1/messages

| Parameter | ①OpenAI → OpenAI | ②Ollama → OpenAI | ③OpenAI → Ollama | ④Ollama → Ollama | ⑤Anthropic → OpenAI | ⑥Anthropic → Ollama |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Temperature | Full support | Full support | Full support | Full support | Full support | Full support |
| Top P | Full support | Full support | Full support | Full support | Full support | Full support |
| Top K | Not supported | DB override discarded | DB override | Full support | Not supported | DB override |
| Num Ctx | Not supported | DB override discarded | DB override | Full support | Not supported | DB override |
| Thinking | DB override | DB override | DB override | Full support | DB override | DB override |
| Images / Multimodal | Passthrough | Converted | Converted | Passthrough | Not supported | Not supported |
| Repeat Penalty | Not supported | DB override discarded | DB override | Full support | Not supported | DB override |
'DB override' means a hard assignment (=), not a null-coalescing assignment (??=). When the virtual model has a value configured in the database, the client-supplied value is always discarded.
Load Balancing, Tiered Fallback & Mixed Providers
OllamaGateway goes beyond simple proxying. It intelligently distributes requests across multiple underlying models, automatically falls back when a provider is unavailable, and lets you combine models from different providers into a single virtual model.
Smart Load Balancing
Distribute API requests across multiple underlying Ollama instances or OpenAI-compatible providers. Configure weights and priorities for each backend to optimize throughput and resource utilization.
Tiered Fallback
Define fallback chains for your models. If the primary provider fails or times out, OllamaGateway automatically steps down to the next available backend — ensuring maximum uptime without manual intervention.
Multi-Provider Virtual Models
Blend multiple models from entirely different providers into a single virtual model. Mix Ollama backends with OpenAI-compatible services — your clients see one unified endpoint while the gateway handles all routing and translation behind the scenes.
Why choose OllamaGateway?
Native Ollama is great for personal use, but it lacks the enterprise features required for team collaboration and production deployment. OllamaGateway fills those gaps without changing your workflow.
