From AI prototype to production: API management changes

Building an AI prototype is usually straightforward.

You pick a model, write a request, test the response, and adjust the prompt.

But moving from prototype to production changes the problem.

You start caring about:

  • Which models are available
  • How usage is tracked
  • Where integration docs live
  • How API access is managed
  • How dashboards are organized
  • How teams understand the workflow

The API layer becomes more than just a request and response. It becomes part of the product infrastructure.

That is the kind of problem ChinaRouter is focused on.

ChinaRouter is a unified AI API gateway and admin dashboard. It is designed to help developers and teams organize model access, usage lookup, documentation, and dashboard workflows.

If you have moved an AI prototype into production, what part of API management became painful first?
