Unkey
The Developer Platform for Modern APIs

Unkey is a developer platform that consolidates API deployment, gateways, and observability into a single control plane. It supports Git-based deploys, Docker containers, preview environments, and immutable versioned releases with instant rollback. The platform also handles edge rate limiting, API key management, multi-region routing, and real-time request logging.
Unkey connects to a Git repository for automatic deploys, routes traffic through global edge gateways with built-in rate limiting and API key controls, and logs every request for real-time observability via a dashboard or HTTP API.
