What to expect from an ideal product

  1. Bifrost cuts gateway overhead to just 11 microseconds even when handling 5,000 requests per second, eliminating the bottleneck that slows down most LLM implementations
  2. The dynamic plugin architecture lets you add only the features you need without bloating the system, keeping response times consistently fast as your application grows
  3. Built-in MCP support removes the need for external middleware layers that typically add 500+ microseconds of latency to each request
  4. Clean, optimized codebase processes requests 40x faster than traditional gateways like LiteLLM by avoiding unnecessary overhead and complex routing logic
  5. Integrated governance and observability tools run in parallel without blocking the main request path, so monitoring doesn't slow down your actual LLM responses
