unifiedai-sdk 1.1.1

Unified SDK for multi-provider LLM comparison (Cerebras, AWS Bedrock) with OpenAI-compatible interface.

UnifiedAI SDK

OpenAI-compatible Python SDK unifying multiple providers (Cerebras, AWS Bedrock) with Solo and Comparison modes, strict models, and built‑in telemetry.

Highlights

• 🔄 100% Backwards Compatible: Drop-in replacements for Cerebras SDK and boto3 Bedrock
• OpenAI-compatible API: UnifiedAI().chat.completions.create(...) (sync) and AsyncUnifiedAI (async)
• Multi-Provider Support: Cerebras and AWS Bedrock (extensible architecture)
• Dual Modes: Solo execution or side-by-side Comparison
• Rich Metrics: Duration, TTFB, tokens/sec, provider-specific timing
• Observability: Structured logs, Prometheus metrics, OpenTelemetry tracing hooks
• Flexible Credentials: Pass at client construction or use environment variables
• 🌟 Cross-Provider Access: Use Cerebras models through Bedrock API (and vice versa!)

🎯 Three Ways to Use UnifiedAI

UnifiedAI offers three interfaces - choose the one that fits your needs:

Interface	Use Case	Migration Effort
Cerebras Compat	Migrating from Cerebras SDK	Change 1 line
Bedrock Compat	Migrating from boto3 Bedrock	Change 1 line
UnifiedAI Native	New projects, multi-provider	Learn new API

🔷 Interface 1: Cerebras SDK Compatibility

Drop-in Replacement for Cerebras Cloud SDK

Migration: Change one line in your code:

# BEFORE (Cerebras SDK)
from cerebras.cloud.sdk import Cerebras

client = Cerebras(api_key="sk-...")
response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="llama3.1-8b",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]
)
print(response.choices[0].message.content)

# AFTER (UnifiedAI - 100% compatible!)
from unifiedai import Cerebras  # ← Only change this line!

client = Cerebras(api_key="sk-...")  # Same constructor
response = client.chat.completions.create(  # Same method
    model="llama3.1-8b",  # Same model IDs
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]  # Same message format
)
print(response.choices[0].message.content)  # Same response format

✅ What's Compatible

• Constructor: Cerebras(api_key="...", base_url="...")
• Chat Completions: client.chat.completions.create(...)
• List Models: client.models.list()
• Streaming: stream=True parameter
• Parameters: temperature, max_tokens, top_p, etc.
• Response Format: OpenAI-style choices, usage, model
• Async Support: AsyncCerebras for async/await

🌟 NEW: Access Bedrock Models (Cross-Provider!)

from unifiedai import Cerebras

client = Cerebras(api_key="sk-...")

# Use Cerebras models (native)
response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="llama3.1-8b",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]
)

# Use AWS Bedrock models (NEW!)
response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="bedrock.anthropic.claude-3-haiku-20240307-v1:0",  # ← Bedrock model!
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello from Bedrock!"}]
)

Async Example

from unifiedai import AsyncCerebras

async with AsyncCerebras(api_key="sk-...") as client:
    response = await client.chat.completions.create(
        model="llama3.1-8b",
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]
    )
    print(response.choices[0].message.content)

---

🔶 Interface 2: AWS Bedrock Compatibility

Drop-in Replacement for boto3 bedrock-runtime

Migration: Replace boto3.client() with BedrockRuntime():

# BEFORE (boto3 bedrock-runtime)
import boto3

client = boto3.client('bedrock-runtime', region_name='us-east-1')
response = client.converse(
    modelId='anthropic.claude-3-haiku-20240307-v1:0',
    messages=[
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": [{"text": "Hello"}]
        }
    ]
)
print(response['output']['message']['content'][0]['text'])

# AFTER (UnifiedAI - 100% compatible!)
from unifiedai import BedrockRuntime  # ← Replace boto3.client()

client = BedrockRuntime(region_name='us-east-1')  # Same parameters
response = client.converse(  # Same method
    modelId='anthropic.claude-3-haiku-20240307-v1:0',  # Same model IDs
    messages=[  # Same message format
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": [{"text": "Hello"}]
        }
    ]
)
print(response['output']['message']['content'][0]['text'])  # Same response format

✅ What's Compatible

• Constructor: BedrockRuntime(region_name="...", aws_access_key_id="...", ...)
• Converse API: client.converse(modelId="...", messages=[...], inferenceConfig={...})
• List Models: client.list_foundation_models(byProvider="...")
• Message Format: Bedrock-style with content as list of dicts
• Response Format: boto3-style dict with output, usage, metrics
• Inference Config: temperature, maxTokens, topP, stopSequences

🌟 NEW: Access Cerebras Models (Cross-Provider!)

from unifiedai import BedrockRuntime

client = BedrockRuntime(
    region_name='us-east-1',
    cerebras_api_key='sk-...'  # Add Cerebras key
)

# Use Bedrock models (native)
response = client.converse(
    modelId='anthropic.claude-3-haiku-20240307-v1:0',
    messages=[
        {"role": "user", "content": [{"text": "Hello"}]}
    ]
)

# Use Cerebras models (NEW!)
response = client.converse(
    modelId='cerebras.llama3.1-8b',  # ← Cerebras model!
    messages=[
        {"role": "user", "content": [{"text": "Hello from Cerebras!"}]}
    ]
)

List Foundation Models (boto3 compatible)

# List all models
response = client.list_foundation_models()
for model in response['modelSummaries']:
    print(f"{model['modelId']} - {model['providerName']}")

# Filter by provider
response = client.list_foundation_models(byProvider="Anthropic")
response = client.list_foundation_models(byProvider="Cerebras")  # NEW!

---

🔹 Interface 3: UnifiedAI Native (Multi-Provider from Day 1)

For new projects or when you want multi-provider features from the start:

Single Provider (Solo Mode)

from unifiedai import UnifiedAI

# Cerebras
client = UnifiedAI(
    provider="cerebras",
    model="llama3.1-8b",
    credentials={"api_key": "sk-..."}
)

# Bedrock
client = UnifiedAI(
    provider="bedrock",
    model="anthropic.claude-3-haiku-20240307-v1:0",
    credentials={
        "aws_access_key_id": "...",
        "aws_secret_access_key": "...",
        "region_name": "us-east-1"
    }
)

# Use
response = client.chat.completions.create(
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]
)
print(response.choices[0].message["content"])
print(f"Tokens: {response.usage.total_tokens}")
print(f"Duration: {response.metrics.duration_ms:.2f}ms")

Multi-Provider (Comparison Mode)

A/B test two providers simultaneously:

from unifiedai import UnifiedAI

client = UnifiedAI(
    credentials_by_provider={
        "cerebras": {"api_key": "sk-..."},
        "bedrock": {
            "aws_access_key_id": "...",
            "aws_secret_access_key": "...",
            "region_name": "us-east-1"
        }
    }
)

# Compare same model on different providers
result = client.chat.completions.compare(
    providers=["cerebras", "bedrock"],
    models={
        "cerebras": "llama3.1-8b",
        "bedrock": "meta.llama3-1-8b-instruct-v1:0"  # Same model, different ID
    },
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum computing"}]
)

# Analyze results
print(f"Winner: {result.winner}")
print(f"Cerebras: {result.provider_a.metrics.duration_ms:.2f}ms")
print(f"Bedrock: {result.provider_b.metrics.duration_ms:.2f}ms")

Async (for FastAPI, web backends)

from unifiedai import AsyncUnifiedAI

async with AsyncUnifiedAI(provider="cerebras", model="llama3.1-8b") as client:
    response = await client.chat.completions.create(
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]
    )

Streaming

async with AsyncUnifiedAI(provider="cerebras", model="llama3.1-8b") as client:
    async for chunk in client.chat.completions.stream(
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Write a story"}]
    ):
        print(chunk.delta.get("content", ""), end="")

List Models

# List models from specific provider
models = client.models.list(provider="cerebras")
for model in models:
    print(f"{model.id} - {model.owned_by}")

# List from all configured providers
all_models = client.models.list()
