## What is Manifest?
Manifest is a smart model router for agents and AI applications that redirects each query to the right model, saving up to 70% in AI costs.
- 🔀 Routing based on complexity, specificity and custom HTTP headers
- 🎛️ Mix your providers: API keys, Subscriptions, Local models, Custom providers
- 📊 Track every single dollar, setup notifications and limits
- 🚑 Fallback on different models when queries fails
## Quick start
### Cloud version
Go to [app.manifest.build](https://app.manifest.build) and follow the guide.
### Self-hosted
Manifest ships as a [Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/manifestdotbuild/manifest). One command:
```bash
bash <(curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mnfst/manifest/main/docker/install.sh)
```
Open [http://localhost:2099](http://localhost:2099) and sign up — the first account you create becomes the admin. Full self-hosting guide: [docker/DOCKER_README.md](docker/DOCKER_README.md).
> The legacy `manifest` npm package is deprecated and no longer published.
## Providers
Manifest connects to **300+ models across 17 providers** plus any custom provider (OpenAI/Anthropic compatible). Bring your own API key, reuse a paid subscription you already have, or run models locally — all routed through
the same `/auto` endpoint.
