# Sudo: One API for All Models

## What is Sudo?

Sudo is a unified API for large language models. We make it simple for developers to route across different LLMs while getting better performance, lower cost, and higher uptime than going direct.

### Sudo Developer Platform

With Sudo, developers can build AI apps without worrying about vendor lock-in or juggling multiple integrations. **One API gives you seamless access to models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and more** — while our router optimizes every call for speed and price.

Sudo’s mission is to be the most reliable and cost-efficient LLM router, so you can focus on building great products instead of managing infrastructure.

### What's Next: Context & Monetization

We’re extending Sudo beyond routing into context engineering and monetization features. With one single API endpoint, developers will be able to:

* **Feed context into apps seamlessly** — attach documents, links, or instructions once, and Sudo will automatically **manage and optimize context** across every model call, without manually rewriting system prompts.
* **Monetize end users directly** — unlock revenue streams through built-in **contextual ad placement and usage-based billing**, so you can focus on growing your product while Sudo handles payments and optimization.

By combining **routing, context, and monetization** in one place, Sudo moves closer to being the all-in-one developer platform for building and scaling AI apps.
