# Manifest

> Manifest is an open-source LLM router that cuts AI agent costs by up to 70%. It is OpenAI-compatible and works with personal AI agents and app AI SDKs.

Manifest analyzes each query locally in under 2ms and routes it to the cheapest model that can handle it. The routing engine runs entirely on your machine. The cloud version uses a blind proxy that redirects requests to the right provider without reading them. Your data stays yours by architecture, not by policy.

Manifest supports 500+ models across every major provider. Budgets and rate limits, custom providers, model fallbacks, and spend tracking are all built in.

## Compatible agents and SDKs

Personal AI agents:
- OpenClaw
- Hermes Agent
- NanoClaw

App AI SDKs:
- OpenAI SDK
- Vercel AI SDK
- LangChain

Anything that speaks the OpenAI-compatible API works with Manifest.
