Instead of Gravitee API Gateway

Gravitee API Gateway alternatives

Gravitee API Gateway handles API traffic through a runtime that applies security, transformation, and traffic policies. It supports REST, GraphQL, gRPC, SOAP, WebSocket, Server-sent Events, and Webhooks, with drag-and-drop policy configuration for authentication, validation, rate limiting, caching, and threat protection. Teams can reuse shared policy groups and deploy across self-managed, cloud, on-premises, and Kubernetes environments. Its broader API management capabilities include a catalog, lifecycle management, analytics, and a developer portal.

A different tool may suit you better if your main need is API configuration, usage billing, customer entitlements, or AI cost controls rather than a general-purpose gateway. Gravitee has a free Community Edition, but Planet starts at $2,500 per month and higher tiers have custom pricing. Its platform options include API, Linux, self-hosted, web, and Windows. Compare alternatives by deployment fit, integrations, and whether the functions you need must run directly in the gateway or can sit alongside it.
