AIProxy
AIProxy provides a robust solution for iOS developers looking to securely integrate AI capabilities into their applications. The service combines split key encryption, DeviceCheck, and certificate pinning to ensure API keys remain protected from theft and abuse, while offering comprehensive monitoring and control features through an intuitive dashboard.
Built on AWS infrastructure, AIProxy delivers enterprise-grade security with real-time observability, customizable rate limits, and model overrides. The platform's streamlined integration process allows developers to implement secure AI functionality in their apps within minutes, eliminating the need for complex backend configurations or cloud functions.
Proxed.AI
Proxed.AI addresses the significant security risks associated with embedding AI API keys directly into mobile applications, particularly iOS apps. Such embedded credentials can be easily extracted by attackers through decompilation, leading to unauthorized access, potential data breaches, and uncontrolled AI service costs. Proxed.AI offers a solution by acting as a secure proxy for these API calls. Users can protect their AI credentials by simply changing the API endpoint URL in their app to the Proxed.AI endpoint, eliminating the need for complex backend development or SDK integrations.
The service leverages Apple's DeviceCheck API to ensure API requests originate from genuine, non-compromised iOS devices, effectively blocking emulators, bots, and scripted attacks. This hardware-level verification keeps sensitive AI provider API keys off the mobile device, storing them securely on the server side instead. The platform allows for granular control over AI usage through features like rate limiting and usage tracking, helping developers manage costs and prevent abuse. Proxed.AI also offers functionalities for analyzing vision, text, and documents, converting unstructured data into actionable insights, and securing OpenAI API usage with enterprise-grade features. It is available as a hosted service or as an open-source solution for self-hosting.

FAQs
-
Does AIProxy store API keys?
No, AIProxy doesn't store complete API keys. They encrypt the key and store one part in their database, while the other part is sent with requests from your app. The key can only be derived when both pieces are combined.What if someone steals my AIProxy key?
The AIProxy key is designed to be useless on its own and can be safely hardcoded in your client. The system uses a split encryption method where only half of the encrypted key is stored on their backend.How does AIProxy handle scaling?
AIProxy is deployed on AWS Lambda, allowing for effortless horizontal scaling behind a load balancer.What if someone uses my AIProxy endpoint?
AIProxy implements multiple security measures including configurable proxy rules, Apple's DeviceCheck service verification, and one-time token usage to prevent request replays and endpoint abuse.
