Databricks made Unity AI Gateway generally available. It gives organizations one place to track and cap what they spend on AI tools, apply security rules at the moment an agent runs, and route requests across models from different providers. It works across coding agents, external agents and models, and requires the Databricks platform.

What changed

Unity AI Gateway was available before general availability, and organizations tracked AI tool spend and access controls across separate, disconnected platforms.

What it unlocks

Applying one set of spending limits, usage reporting and security rules across many different AI models, agents and tools from a single place.

  • over a quadrillion tokens passed through the gateway in the past year
  • thousands of customers already using it

What you need to act on it

  • a Databricks account
