BYOK vs managed keys: aligning procurement with developer velocity

Every enterprise AI rollout hits the same fork in the road: do teams bring their own provider contracts, or does the platform supply access? EuroGate is built so you don't have to pick one answer for the whole company.

BYOK - bring your own keys

If you already hold OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure OpenAI, Bedrock, Gemini, DeepSeek, or Qwen contracts, route them through EuroGate as one governed endpoint. You keep your provider relationships and pricing; EuroGate adds team key management, budgets, audit logs, and routing on top. Best for teams with established contracts and procurement already in place.

Managed keys - EuroGate-supplied access

Skip provider account setup entirely. Under the formal reseller agreement, EuroGate supplies approved access with one invoice, quota controls, and support. Best for pilots, new teams, or anyone who wants a single bill and no provider onboarding.

Hybrid - both, per team

Run existing enterprise contracts for core workloads while using EuroGate-supplied keys for pilots, overflow, regional routing, or teams without provider accounts - with one set of policies, budgets, and reports across both.

The point isn't to sell you keys. It's to let procurement and developers each get what they need from the same governed rails.
