January 2026 monthly summary for BerriAI/litellm focusing on delivering UX improvements, reliability, and pricing accuracy. Highlights include UI enhancements in Playground with custom proxy base URL support and scoping, significant Vertex AI integration improvements (auto-detect of vertex_location from supported_regions, global endpoint support for Qwen MaaS models, and URL construction refactor), addition of embeddings in Vercel AI Gateway, thinking parameter support for hosted_vllm, and expanded/gap-filling pricing coverage for audio models. Also completed a targeted HTTP-layer refactor for better maintainability and fixed critical correctness issues in pricing, region handling, and parameter handling across providers. These efforts reduce misconfigurations, improve performance and testability, and enable broader cloud-provider coverage for customers.
