What platforms does Lago support?

We have confirmed browser-based access to Lago. That is the extent of what we could verify from public sources, so it may well offer desktop or mobile clients we have not indexed.

Source: https://getlago.com/blog/ai-api-token-based-pricing

Can Lago be self-hosted?

Yes. Lago can be deployed cloud / SaaS and self-hosted, so it does not have to run on the vendor's infrastructure.

Source: https://getlago.com/blog/ai-api-token-based-pricing

What does Lago integrate with?

We have confirmed 6 integrations for Lago, including Avalara, Kafka, Kinesis, Google Cloud Pub/Sub, AWS S3 and Azure. This is what we could verify from public sources, so the vendor may support others we have not indexed.

Source: https://getlago.com/blog/ai-api-token-based-pricing

What security certifications does Lago have?

We have independently confirmed SOC 2 and GDPR for Lago. Certifications we do not list are ones we have not been able to verify from public sources, which is not the same as Lago not holding them. Always confirm compliance directly before you rely on it.

Source: https://www.getlago.com

Is Lago open source?

Yes. Lago is published under the AGPL-3.0 licence, a copyleft licence, so check its terms before embedding it in a closed-source product. Licence terms can change between releases, so verify against the repository for the version you intend to use.

The vioscaleAI score: one lens on the evidence

Not user reviews and not a paid placement: a confidence-weighted blend of the independent signals below (adoption, activity, security posture, and more), which you can sort and re-weight yourself. Vendors can correct their listing but can never move their rank, and stars are weighted low as a vanity metric. It is one way to read the evidence for Lago, not the verdict.
