📣 Every API + AI Summit 2026 session is now on demand: bit.ly/4A2hy37
Dive in virtually, then find us at @AWS re:Invent, booth 1485 (Nov 30 – Dec 4, The Venetian). Live demos of governing APIs, LLM traffic, and agents in production.

4.2B tokens in a month. 162 consumers. 43 models. One governed, OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
@wwt_inc runs its LLMaaS in the AI Proving Ground on Kong AI Gateway. Here’s the whole stack, layer by layer: wwt.com/blog/inside-llmaas-p…
Kong retweeted
Kong CEO @sonicaghi reveals token traffic through its gateways is growing 140x year over year, approaching 1 quadrillion tokens:
"The number of tokens is growing exponentially. For the subset that we see, we are running about 500 trillion tokens, going to a quadrillion soon, because it’s growing 140x year over year."
"The cost per token is going down, and inference will still be exploding. We’re gonna live in this enterprise world that is more multi-model, cheaper tokens, cheaper levels of intelligence."
"The next pieces are, how do we secure it? How do we govern it? How do we cost control it?"

Context Mesh is here!
It's like a universal adapter for your agents: compose APIs, data, and docs into MCP interfaces agents can call directly. Agents discover tools just in time and retrieve only what the task needs.

We benchmarked blocking recall, precision, and F1 on real PRs to determine when a frontier model is worth the price for code review.
Opus costs 7x more per review than GLM 5.3. We added a triage step that matches model and effort to each PR, and median review costs dropped from $3.93 to $2.47.
Here's the story: konghq.com/blog/engineering/…
Most enterprise AI projects don’t fail at the model. They fail at the infrastructure underneath it.
Find us at booth P13 at AGNTCon + MCPCon (San Jose, Oct 22–23) for an in-depth demo and a chat with a Kong exec.
A haunted house, but it’s every team building its own auth, routing, and fallbacks, then calling it governance.
A haunted house, but it’s a room where nobody can tell you what your AI bill is going to be this month.
Gartner expects 40% of enterprises to demote or decommission agents by 2027, after governance gaps only showed up when something broke.

Your AI bill says “$27,000 on Claude.”
It should say “$27,000 resolving 18,400 support cases at $1.47 each.”
AI Cost Management is now in beta in Kong Konnect: attribution, budgets, alerts, and exports, priced per request at the gateway. Here's why Kongers are calling it one of the most impactful things we've ever shipped: bit.ly/4hVNNJN
API + AI Summit couldn't have happened without the companies who backed it.
To our sponsors, thank you for backing an event built for the people actually shipping AI and APIs. We're already looking forward to next year!
In finance, fast and safe aren’t a tradeoff.
Kong governs API and AI traffic on one platform, with security and compliance built in from day one. In fact, @sixgroup cut manual overhead by 50%+!
Find us at the Kong kiosk at @money2020, Las Vegas, Oct 18–21.
