# Millwright: Rust-based, self-hosted LLM router

## AI commentary

> If you're struggling with orchestrating multiple LLM APIs and controlling costs, Millwright's deterministic routing approach is worth a try. Its Rust implementation and self-hosted nature make it especially suitable for teams with strict latency and security requirements.

## At a glance

Millwright is a self-hosted LLM router written in Rust, emphasizing cost-effectiveness, deterministic routing, and high performance. It is secure and private by default, supporting multi-model load balancing and fallback, making it suitable for AI applications that require local deployment, low latency, and high reliability. The project is open-sourced on GitHub and can be flexibly integrated into existing inference backends.

## Key points

- Built with Rust for high performance and memory safety
- Self-hosted with security and privacy by default
- Deterministic routing and cost control mechanisms
- Multi-model fallback and load balancing support
