What is Unkey?

Unkey is the developer platform for modern APIs. We unify your infrastructure so you can ship faster: deploy APIs instantly, route traffic through global gateways, and understand usage — all in one place.

• Deploy — push an API to production in seconds, with zero infrastructure to manage
• Gateway — route, authenticate, and shape traffic through globally distributed gateways
• API Keys — issue, verify, and revoke keys with fast global verification
• Ratelimiting — globally consistent, durable ratelimiting for any identifier
• Permissions & RBAC — per-key permissions, roles, and fine-grained access control
• Analytics — usage, latency, and per-key insights across every request
• Audit logs — immutable history of every action across your workspace

Pull requests

Unkey is not accepting external pull requests at this time.

Unkey has paused external code contributions while the team focuses on platform direction and stability. Pull requests opened by people outside the Unkey team will not be reviewed or merged.

Issues remain open for bug reports, feature requests, and documentation feedback. This repository remains public and source-available so you can read the code, fork it under the terms of the FSL-1.1-ALv2, and self-host. Unkey may revisit this policy in the future, and any change will be announced here.
