Plano is an AI-native proxy server and data plane for agentic applications, built on Envoy by its core contributors. It centralizes agent routing and orchestration, LLM model routing, observability signals and traces, and guardrail filter chains so developers can ship agents to production without bespoke middleware.
Use cases
- route requests to the right agent in a multi-agent system
- proxy and load-balance across multiple LLM providers with model aliases
- add guardrails and moderation filters to LLM traffic
- capture traces and agentic signals for observability
- standardize LLM access behind an OpenAI-compatible gateway
- turn prompts into deterministic API function calls
- deploy agents on-premises with centralized policy control
When to choose
- you run multiple agents or LLM providers and need unified routing and failover
- you want zero-code observability, tracing, and metrics across agentic apps
- you need centralized guardrails, moderation, and access policies
- you want framework-agnostic infrastructure that works with any language or AI framework
- you need on-premises or self-hosted delivery infrastructure for regulated environments
When to avoid
- you have a single-model, single-agent prototype with no production concerns
- you need a client-side SDK embedded in application code rather than a network proxy
- you require Windows-native deployment without Docker
- you want a full agent framework with built-in agent code abstractions rather than a data plane
