Frequently asked questions
How does Portkey work?
You can integrate Portkey by replacing the OpenAI API base path in your app with Portkey's API endpoint. Portkey will start routing all your requests to OpenAI to give you control of everything that's happening. You can then unlock additional value by managing your prompts & parameters in a single place.
How do you store my data?
Portkey is ISO:27001 and SOC 2 certified. We're also GDPR compliant. We maintain the best practices involving security of our services, data storage and retrieval. All your data is encrypted in transit and at rest. For enterprises, we offer managed hosting to deploy Portkey inside private clouds.
Will this slow down my app?
No, we actively benchmark to check for any additional latency due to Portkey. With the built-in smart caching, automatic fail-over and edge compute layers - your users might even notice an overall improvement in your app experience.
