About

Engineering leader and founder of Tempr. I've spent my career building and running platforms at scale: VP of Engineering at PlayOn! Sports and Logicbroker, senior engineering roles at ParkMobile, and a decade at The Home Depot scaling enterprise platforms and bringing in DevOps practices. Now I'm building Tempr, so developers can bring their own AI provider keys and use them everywhere: chat, a coding agent and inline completion in Visual Studio, VS Code and JetBrains IDEs, a CLI, and an OpenAI-compatible Gateway with virtual keys, request logs and spend limits. Tempr never marks up tokens. Based in Atlanta.

Tempr Gateway - OpenAI-compatible gateway for the API keys you already own

An OpenAI-compatible API in front of the provider keys you already have. Swap your SDK base URL and get virtual keys (model allowlist, budget, RPM/TPM limits), searchable request logs, and analytics by key and model. No token markup: you pay your provider directly and Tempr by request volume. Plus fallback chains, prompt caching, custom models on your own vLLM/SGLang servers, and the Responses API on any model. Free tier: 10,000 requests/month, no card.
