Step 1
Confirm which request families, providers, and deployment boundary your program must support.
Developers governance
Give developers one governed path to every approved model
Application teams want simple SDKs and fast iteration. Platform teams need policy, routing, and evidence on every request. Verdictan exposes an OpenAI-compatible gateway API for supported traffic so developers keep familiar client patterns.
What you are trying to solve
Scattered API keys and direct provider calls make it hard to answer which policy handled a given request during an incident.
Step 2
Start from a sector template or control map, then tune thresholds for your environment.
Step 3
Run deterministic policy tests before you route regulated or customer-facing traffic.
What developers get from the gateway model
Point existing OpenAI-compatible clients at the Verdictan gateway, keep environment-specific configuration in YAML, and test policy outcomes in lower environments first.
Verdictan does not replace secure software development practices. It adds a documented enforcement and evidence layer for supported AI request traffic.
Controls teams usually test first
Familiar client patterns
Reuse OpenAI-compatible request shapes for supported Chat Completions and Responses traffic.
Environment-specific policy
Keep development, staging, and production configurations separate while using the same enforcement model.
Spend and routing visibility
Route to approved provider targets and review estimated token use before costs spread across services.
A practical rollout sequence
- Publish one gateway endpoint and credential model for application teams.
- Connect the highest-risk services first and run policy tests in CI or staging.
- Expand routing after security and FinOps reviewers sign off on decision samples.
