Together AI is a cloud platform for running, fine-tuning, batching, and training open-weight AI models. It supports serverless inference, dedicated endpoints, LoRA and full fine-tuning, GPU clusters, code-execution sandboxes, and async batch jobs up to 30B tokens per model. Current docs list fast-moving families such as Qwen, Kimi, GLM, GPT-OSS, DeepSeek, Llama, MiniMax, and Mistral.

Groq is an AI inference provider built around custom Language Processing Unit (LPU) hardware for low-latency open-weight model serving. GroqCloud exposes an OpenAI-compatible API for Llama, GPT-OSS, Qwen, Kimi, DeepSeek, Gemma, Whisper, and related models, with high token-throughput positioning, model-specific rate limits, and usage-based pricing.

Cloud platform that lets developers run thousands of open-source and proprietary public ML models through a simple API without managing GPUs or infrastructure. Replicate hosts models for image, text, audio, and video, supports Cog-based custom deployments and private models, and now operates as a distinct Cloudflare brand with pay-by-time or input/output pricing depending on the model.

Cerebras Inference serves open-weight LLMs like Llama, Qwen, and GPT-OSS on wafer-scale CS-3 chips through an OpenAI-compatible API, benchmarking between 1,800 and 2,600 output tokens per second on Llama 3.1 8B and several hundred on 70B models. A free tier offers one million tokens per day with no credit card, while paid pay-per-token pricing starts at $0.04 per million tokens for the smaller Llama models.
