Metering and Billing integration using Lago

Description

I have seen API Six a promising solution for my idea as a api backend server. I need to integrate input and output tokens per request for my ai models. If I need it to integrate it to my Lago billing server where or how do I integrate in ApiSix.

Hey @sanjibnarzary, it's an interesting proposal. Based on my experience with Lago, we need to build a connector so Lago can collect metrics, similar to Moesif.

There are no existing documents on how to make connections, so let's give it a try and update it here.

Hi thank you @juzhiyuan that will be a great help. I am interested in building an AI API Platform similar to OpenAI Platform where users can Signup and Login, Use API which will be guarded by API Six, AI Models by Ollama or VLLM, Billing and Metering by Lago and Payment through Stripe or Any other payment gateway. That will be served as AI startup platform who wants to create something similar to OpenAI. That will be an open source AI API Platform 😊
