AI Gateway Observability: Logs, Metrics, and Audit Trails

After a team connects to multiple AI models, the most common production questions are not only “Did the request work?” They are usually more specific:

Why did this request become slower today?
Why did this tenant’s cost spike?
Which model actually served this response?
Did the request use a fallback path?
Can we explain this model decision later?

Those questions all point to the same requirement: an AI gateway needs observability designed for model calls, not just generic HTTP traffic.
