<p>This plugin allows your WordPress site to connect to the Vercel AI Gateway. It enables your WordPress site to use hundreds of generative AI models from over 40 different providers, to generate text, images, video, and more.</p>
<p>The Vercel AI Gateway connector is built on top of WordPress’s built-in AI client and integrates seamlessly with its connector API. This way it unlocks using AI powered plugins on your site.</p>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Access hundreds of models from over 40 providers with 1 API key</li>
<li>Generate text, images, video, and more, including multi-turn conversations</li>
<li>Unified billing and observability across your entire AI stack, with text, image, and video models</li>
<li>Automatic fallbacks during provider outages so your app stays up even when a model goes down</li>
<li>Pay exactly what providers charge with no platform fees</li>
</ul>
<p>Available models are dynamically discovered from the AI Gateway API – you get access to new models as soon as they’re available.</p>
<h4>Providers and Models</h4>
<p>The AI Gateway gives you access to more than 100 models from over 40 providers, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>Amazon (Nova models)</li>
<li>Anthropic (Claude models)</li>
<li>Black Forest Labs (Flux models)</li>
<li>Google (Gemini, Imagen, and Veo models)</li>
<li>KlingAI (Kling models)</li>
<li>MiniMax (MiniMax models)</li>
<li>Mistral (Mistral and Devstral models)</li>
<li>Moonshot AI (Kimi models)</li>
<li>OpenAI (GPT and Dall-E models)</li>
<li>Perplexity (Sonar models)</li>
<li>xAI (Grok models)</li>
<li>Z.ai (GLM models)</li>
</ul>
<p>You can access all of these and many more directly through the AI Gateway, drastically simplifying your setup. For a full list of models, <a href="https://vercel.com/ai-gateway/models" rel="nofollow ugc">browse the official AI Gateway models list</a>.</p>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<p>Once you install the Vercel AI Gateway Provider plugin on your WordPress site, any AI feature that uses the WordPress built-in AI client can use it, typically through other plugins.</p>
<p>If you want to write your own plugin that uses it, you can do so through the WordPress built-in AI client as well. Here’s a code example:</p>
<pre><code>$result = wp_ai_client_prompt( 'Hello, world!' )
    ->using_provider( 'ai_gateway' )
    ->generate_text_result();
</code></pre>
<p>Note however, that the usage of <code>using_provider</code> will make the prompt only work if the individual WordPress site has the Vercel AI Gateway Provider plugin active and configured. You should therefore only use it if you want to enforce usage of the AI Gateway.</p>
<p>Otherwise, for broader ecosystem compatibility, it is recommended that you don’t specify a provider. You can optionally specify model preferences, for example like this:</p>
<pre><code>$result = wp_ai_client_prompt( 'Hello, world!' )
    ->using_model_preference( 'claude-opus-4.7', 'gemini-3.1-pro-preview', 'gpt-5.4' )
    ->generate_text_result();
</code></pre>
<p>In this case, the first relevant model encountered on the site will be used, and if the site has the Vercel AI Gateway Provider plugin active and configured, it will rely on the AI Gateway.</p>

Vercel AI Gateway Provider

The Vercel AI Gateway connector offers access to hundreds of text, image, and video AI models through 1 API key.

Ido Navarro

<p>AI Provider for Vercel AI Gateway connects WordPress to Vercel AI Gateway so your site can use many leading AI models through one provider.</p>
<p>With one Vercel AI Gateway API key, compatible WordPress AI features can generate text and images using models from providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, BFL Flux, Bytedance Seedream, Recraft, and others.</p>
<p>The plugin is built for sites and developers using the WordPress AI Client. After setup, the provider can be selected as <code>vercel-ai-gateway</code> by compatible AI Client integrations.</p>
<h4>What you can do</h4>
<ul>
<li>Generate text with supported chat and language models.</li>
<li>Generate images with supported image models.</li>
<li>Use one Vercel AI Gateway API key instead of configuring each model provider separately.</li>
<li>Choose default text and image models from the WordPress admin.</li>
<li>Test your API connection from the settings page.</li>
<li>Cache the remote model list briefly to keep the settings screen fast.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Who this is for</h4>
<p>This plugin is useful if your WordPress site, theme, or plugin already uses the WordPress AI Client and you want to route AI requests through Vercel AI Gateway.</p>
<p>It does not add a public chatbot or front-end widget by itself. It registers a provider that other AI Client-powered features can use.</p>
<h3>Requirements</h3>
<ul>
<li>PHP 7.4 or higher</li>
<li>When using with WordPress, requires WordPress 6.9 or higher</li>
<li>A Vercel AI Gateway API key</li>
<li>A WordPress AI Client-compatible feature, plugin, theme, or custom integration</li>
</ul>
<h3>Configuration</h3>
<p>You can provide your Vercel AI Gateway API key in one of these ways:</p>
<ol>
<li>WordPress Connectors screen, when available: Settings > Connectors > Vercel AI Gateway</li>
<li>Plugin settings screen: Settings > Vercel AI Gateway</li>
<li>A constant or environment variable named <code>AI_GATEWAY_API_KEY</code></li>
</ol>
<p>Example constant:</p>
<pre><code>define( 'AI_GATEWAY_API_KEY', 'vck_...' );
</code></pre>
<p>If the WordPress Connectors screen is managing the key, the plugin settings page will show the key status instead of asking you to enter the same key twice.</p>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<p>Once the plugin is configured, compatible WordPress AI Client integrations can use the provider ID:</p>
<pre><code>vercel-ai-gateway
</code></pre>
<p>If your AI feature lets you choose a provider or model, select Vercel AI Gateway and then choose the model you want to use.</p>
<p>Developers can also use the provider directly through the WordPress AI Client:</p>
<pre><code>use WordPress\AiClient\AiClient;

$result = AiClient::prompt( 'Summarize this post in two sentences.' )
    ->usingProvider( 'vercel-ai-gateway' )
    ->usingModel( 'anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6' )
    ->generateTextResult();

echo $result->toText();<h3>External services</h3>
</code></pre>
<p>This plugin connects to Vercel AI Gateway, an external API service provided by Vercel Inc.</p>
<p>The service is used to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Retrieve the list of available AI models.</li>
<li>Send text generation requests.</li>
<li>Send image generation requests.</li>
</ul>
<h4>What data is sent and when</h4>
<p>When you save or test your API key, open the plugin settings, or when the model cache expires, the plugin may send your Vercel AI Gateway API key to <code>https://ai-gateway.vercel.sh/v1/models</code> to retrieve the available model list. The model list is cached for 10 minutes in a WordPress transient.</p>
<p>When a compatible AI Client feature uses this provider, the plugin sends the configured API key, selected model ID, prompt text, chat messages, image inputs if provided, and generation settings needed to complete the request.</p>
<p>Requests may be sent to Vercel AI Gateway endpoints such as:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>https://ai-gateway.vercel.sh/v1/models</code></li>
<li><code>https://ai-gateway.vercel.sh/v1/chat/completions</code></li>
<li><code>https://ai-gateway.vercel.sh/v1/images/generations</code></li>
</ul>
<p>Vercel AI Gateway may route the request to the underlying model provider selected by the model ID.</p>
<h4>Service provider</h4>
<p>Vercel AI Gateway is provided by Vercel Inc.</p>
<ul>
<li>Vercel AI Gateway documentation: https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway</li>
<li>Vercel Terms of Service: https://vercel.com/legal/terms</li>
<li>Vercel Privacy Policy: https://vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy</li>
</ul>
<h3>Supported Models</h3>
<p>The available model list comes from Vercel AI Gateway and is shown in the plugin settings screen. The plugin groups models into text and image options when possible.</p>
<p>Supported model types include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Text models for writing, summarizing, rewriting, and other language tasks.</li>
<li>Image generation models for creating images from prompts.</li>
<li>Vision-capable models when the selected model supports image input.</li>
</ul>
