Model Channel Governance Guide for Cross-Region Teams

A model gateway should make source, permission, budget, logs, and data boundaries visible.

Gateway pattern

Application -> Token.AI gateway -> managed channels / open-source models / self-hosted endpoints / approved commercial channels

What to verify

• Model channel type and enabled status.
• Provider or channel boundary.
• Data processing and retention rules.
• Project API keys, allowlists, budgets, and audit logs.
• Trust Center links for AUP, DPA, and subprocessors.
