API edge proxy for multi-tenant public APIs

Your API, but faster—and harder to break.

accel.li sits in front of your origin to absorb attacks, cache hot routes, enforce quotas, and keep latency steady. Give your customers a public API endpoint without melting your backend.

A unified API edge

Like an API gateway and edge shield in one: accelerate reads, defend against abuse, and make public APIs boringly reliable.

Smart caching

Cache GETs per route, configure TTL, and use stale-while-revalidate for zero-drama updates.

Best for: hot reads · catalog endpoints · metadata

WAF + bot posture

Filter common attacks, abusive patterns, and high-risk bots before they reach your origin.

Best for: public endpoints · partner APIs · signup spikes

Rate limits & quotas

Limit by API key, IP, or route. Enforce monthly quotas with burst controls.

Best for: monetization · fairness · protection

Origin shielding

Offload hot traffic and keep upstream private behind a single trusted layer.

Best for: small origins · shared hosting · bursty traffic

Observability

Per-tenant logs, analytics, and debugging signals for fast incident response.

Best for: debugging · billing · customer support

Multi-tenant endpoints

Every tenant gets a subdomain like acme.accel.li with isolated policies.

Best for: SaaS platforms · resellers · public API programs

Control plane meets data plane

Configure once. Apply per tenant. Keep traffic isolated. A simple mental model that scales.

1
Create tenant
Pick a slug. Endpoint becomes tenant.accel.li.
2
Attach origin
Set upstream URL(s), timeouts, and allowlists.
3
Deploy policies
Cache rules, rate limits, WAF posture, transforms.
4
Go live
Serve traffic with logs, analytics, and incident controls.

Trust & safety

accel.li provides network and proxy services. Tenants control their origins; we provide edge controls, logging, and abuse workflows.

Clear scope

Policies and limits are scoped by subdomain. We avoid “all-or-nothing” actions when a report is specific to a tenant.
