ICYMI: What We Shipped in May 2026

May was one of our busiest release months so far.

This recap covers shipping from May 1, 2026 through May 31, 2026, across gateway capabilities, SDKs, product UX, and model coverage.

What Shipped

Video, async jobs, and observability rolled out

We pushed AI Stats further into production-ready async workflows in May.

Video support expanded across status, cancellation, content, and download flows. We also completed more of the batch lifecycle and made request, session, and async-job details much easier to inspect when you need to debug real traffic instead of toy examples.

For teams operating through the gateway, this means fewer blind spots when something goes wrong and better visibility into what actually happened on a request.

Provider activation and pricing got clearer

We made provider availability much easier to read across the product.

Provider activation states are now surfaced more consistently across model pages and discovery flows, region-aware filtering makes it easier to narrow models by execution geography, and pricing summaries are clearer at a glance. We also refreshed realtime minute pricing, improved hover-card summaries, and fixed homepage token and monthly request metrics so public numbers line up more closely with current activity.

TypeScript Agent SDK launched

We launched the first public version of @ai-stats/agent-sdk.

This release adds a TypeScript-first runtime for bounded, resumable agent loops on AI Stats Gateway, with docs, installation guides, and cookbook examples for coding review, research, support triage, and parallel local tools. It is an important step toward making AI Stats easier to use for longer-running application workflows, not just single request-response integrations.

May model coverage kept moving

May also brought a steady stream of new model additions and promotions across text, realtime, image, video, and coding.
