An LLM gateway and AI asset management system that unifies many model providers.

This page describes the Levelrail template for New API (AI). It deploys the services below as one Docker Compose app on your own server. Project site: [https://docs.newapi.pro/en/getting-started/](https://docs.newapi.pro/en/getting-started/).

Recommended memory: about 512 MiB.
