About Powerful, self-serve machine learning platform where you can turn models into scalable APIs in just a few clicks. Sign up for Deep Infra account using GitHub or log in using GitHub. Choose among hundreds of the most popular ML models. Use a simple rest API to call your model. Deploy models to production faster and cheaper with our serverless GPUs than developing the infrastructure yourself. We have different pricing models depending on the model used. Some of our language models offer per-token pricing. Most other models are billed for inference execution time. With this pricing model, you only pay for what you use. There are no long-term contracts or upfront costs, and you can easily scale up and down as your business needs change. All models run on A100 GPUs, optimized for inference performance and low latency. Our system will automatically scale the model based on your needs.

Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros No pros! Even if you set things up to stop wasting money (silent fails etc.), your settings are worthless. Large range of models. On first glance, priced well. Sleek user interface and easy access to API keys. Min top-up is low at $5. Cons - Setup has different levels without correspondence or evidence of redundancy - your programming limits are worthless, the model runs as it pleases In the less than a month I was testing their service, for common, highly used models available for free download on Hugging Face (so they weren't having to pay a middle man like for gpt etc), they: 1) Deleted 1 model entirely and offered no replacement. 2) Increased the price on another model 400%. 3) Doubled the price of another. There was no obvious way to contact them about this on their website other than a sales form.		Pros from Real Users Pros As an AI developer using Runpod for a few months now: it’s been a great platform for training and deploying my models. The ability to launch GPU pods so quickly has made a huge difference in my workflow. Cold-start times are almost instantaneous, which means I spend less time waiting and more time experimenting and iterating on my AI projects. Runpod offers a wide range of GPU options, from NVIDIA’s latest H100s to AMD MI300Xs, which covers everything I need for both research-level experiments and larger scale training jobs. The support for custom containers is excellent, so I can bring my own environment or use the many preconfigured templates. The autoscaling serverless infrastructure adapts perfectly to varying workloads, and the real-time logs and analytics help me understand how my models are performing in production. Security and compliance, including SOC2 certification, give me peace of mind when deploying sensitive models.
