Google Gemini has the worst LLM API

We built the OpenAI Compatible API (https://cloud.google.com/vertex-ai/generative-ai/docs/multim...) layer to help customers that are already using OAI library to test out Gemini easily with basic inference but not as a replacement library for the genai sdk (https://github.com/googleapis/python-genai). We recommend using th genai SDK for working with Gemini.

So, to be clear, Google only supports Python as a language for accessing your models? Nothing else?

We have Python/Go in GA.

Java/JS is in preview (not ready for production) and will be GA soon!

What about providing an actual API people can call without needing to rely on Google SDKs?

you can do so with the AI SDK from Vercel, open router, etc or just sending raw http requests
