AIProxy

AIProxy is a specialized API proxy service designed specifically for developers building AI-powered mobile applications. It acts as a secure intermediary between your app and various AI providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, and more than 15 other services. The core function is to protect your API keys from being exposed or stolen while giving you enterprise-level control over how your AI APIs are used. Instead of embedding API keys directly in your app where they can be reverse-engineered, AIProxy uses advanced security measures to keep your credentials safe.

What makes AIProxy stand out is its focus on mobile app security. It uses a combination of split key encryption, Apple's DeviceCheck framework, and certificate pinning to prevent API key theft. The service includes a comprehensive dashboard where you can set rate limits, monitor usage in real-time, and even switch AI models without pushing app updates. Their Swift client library makes integration straightforward for iOS developers, supporting async/await patterns and working seamlessly with popular AI providers.

This tool is particularly valuable for mobile app developers and startup founders who are building AI features into their applications but are concerned about security and cost control. Real-world use cases include securing ChatGPT integrations in productivity apps, protecting image generation APIs in creative tools, and managing multiple AI services across a user base without compromising security. The testimonials from various app developers highlight how AIProxy eliminates the need to build complex backend security systems from scratch.
