Does your team face the challenge of being able to control only the total expenses, but not the expenses of individual team members?
Keygood offers you a solution with a more granular control layer. With just a few simple steps, you can ensure that your production systems operate smoothly by allocating any amount of funds at the organizational level, while also limiting spending on API keys assigned to developers.
Simple setup. Granular protection for every key you hand out.

Has your team run into these challenges?
Standard provider budgets only cap the entire organization. Here is how teams hit roadblocks:
The Org-Wide Cap Dilemma
Setting a strict total budget risks shutting down live production apps, but removing the cap exposes your entire account to accidental developer overspending.
Individual Dev Allocation
Handing raw API keys to team members, contractors, or staging environments gives everyone full, unmonitored access to the same shared account balance.
Unchecked Local Testing Loops
A buggy recursive script, aggressive retry logic, or runaway AI agent in local dev can burn through thousands of requests before anyone notices.
⚠️ Approaching limit ($0.15 left). Next unhandled infinite loop will be intercepted instantly with HTTP 402.
Why Org-level API limits are not enough for teams
OpenAI only lets you set spending limits across your entire account. But engineering teams need key-level granularity.
The Infinite Loop Trap
A developer writes a unhandled while loop or buggy retry logic in local testing. It fires 10,000 API requests overnight while everyone is asleep.
High Production Risk
You need massive rate limits for your production app, but giving that same master key to junior devs or contractors is an accident waiting to happen.
Cost Attribution Blackhole
When the end-of-month $3,000 bill arrives, you have zero visibility into which feature branch, agent, or developer was responsible for the spike.
Designed for real team workflows
Dev & Staging Isolation
Give devs dedicated keys capped at $5/day and restricted to cheap models (e.g. gpt-4o-mini). Keep your expensive production master key isolated.
Contractors & Agencies
Working with external developers or client projects? Issue a restricted key with a hard budget. Revoke or freeze it anytime without touching production.
Autonomous AI Agents
Running experimental AI agents or LangChain loops? Set hard concurrency and daily budget limits so runaway agents get cut off automatically.
Integrate in 30 seconds. Zero code changes.
No custom SDKs to install. Simply point your existing OpenAI SDK client to KeyGood's base URL.
- 01
Add Master Key
Securely store your provider key (AES-256 encrypted at rest).
- 02
Set Granular Limits
Create a dev key with daily budget hard-caps and model access rules.
- 03
Swap Base URL
Replace api.openai.com with keygood.dev in your dev environment.
// Just change one line in your code
const openai = new OpenAI({
apiKey: process.env.KEYGOOD_VIRTUAL_KEY, // kg_live_...
baseURL: "https://keygood.dev/v1", // KeyGood Gateway
});Enterprise-grade Key Security
- ✓AES-256-GCM Encryption: Master API keys are strictly encrypted at rest and handled exclusively on isolated servers.
- ✓SHA-256 Virtual Key Hashing: We never store full virtual keys in our database—only single-way hashes for instant validation.
- ✓Zero Master Key Exposure: Client code and developers only interact with disposable virtual keys, never your master credentials.
