# litellm vs mempalace

litellm and mempalace share 3 technologies: rusqlite, SQLite, and tokenizers. Both are written in Python.

- [BerriAI/litellm](https://seerepo.com/r/BerriAI/litellm): The fastest, litest AI Gateway. Rust core with Python SDK. Call 100+ LLM APIs in OpenAI (or native) format with cost tracking, guardrails, load balancing, and logging [Bedrock, Azure, OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenAI, VertexAI, vLLM, Nvidia NIM]
- [MemPalace/mempalace](https://seerepo.com/r/MemPalace/mempalace): The best-benchmarked open-source AI memory system. And it's free.
