ClawHQ vs Portkey AI
AI gateway vs cost observability
Portkey AI is an AI gateway for managing LLM providers with features like fallbacks and caching. ClawHQ is a fleet management command center — fleet dashboard, cost intelligence, task board, and skill marketplace for your AI agent fleet.
Why teams switch from Portkey AI to ClawHQ
Cost visibility without a gateway
Portkey requires routing all traffic through their gateway. ClawHQ tracks costs via async metrics — no proxy, no latency, no single point of failure.
Predictable flat pricing
Portkey charges based on usage. ClawHQ's flat pricing means you know exactly what you'll pay for cost tracking itself.
Agent-level cost attribution
See exactly which agent is spending what. Portkey shows provider-level costs; ClawHQ shows agent-level costs.
