Fastly AI Accelerator

Fastly AI Accelerator is a semantic caching solution that "boosts the performance of popular LLMs like OpenAI and Google Gemini by 9x" with minimal implementation effort. Semantic caching maps queries to concepts as vectors so the system can cache answers to similar questions regardless of exact wording, identifying and reusing similar or equivalent AI responses rather than caching only exact matches. The free tier is 20,000 requests/month with pricing from $0.40-$0.28 per 1,000 requests by volume.

    Fastly AI Accelerator is a semantic caching solution that boosts the
    performance of popular LLMs like OpenAI and Google Gemini by 9x. Semantic
    caching maps queries to concepts as vectors so the system can cache answers
    to similar questions regardless of exact wording. AI Accelerator exposes
    drop-in compatible chat completions endpoints that proxy to upstream
    providers while serving cached responses from the edge.
