Key Features

  • 200+ open-source models on one API
  • OpenAI-compatible APIs
  • Owned GPU fleet across nine data centers
  • Dedicated GPU deployments
  • Flex, Standard and Priority scheduling tiers
  • Enterprise security posture

Use Cases

  • Production LLM serving at scale
  • Agentic AI backends
  • Multimodal AI pipelines

Ideal For

Best For

  • Serving open-source LLMs in production without managing GPU infrastructure
  • High-volume agentic workloads that need predictable per-token inference costs
  • Migrating off proprietary model APIs using an OpenAI-compatible drop-in endpoint

Market Analysis

Enterprise-gradeCost-optimizedInfrastructure-owning

Pros

  • Very low per-token pricing versus proprietary model APIs
  • Owned infrastructure gives capacity and pricing control others lack
  • Drop-in OpenAI compatibility keeps migration cost low
  • Zero data retention plus SOC 2/ISO 27001 suits regulated buyers

Cons

  • No free tier or trial listed in pricing documentation
  • Focused on open-source model serving — not an end-to-end MLOps or agent platform
  • Cloud-only; no on-premise or hybrid deployment option
  • Geographic footprint is still heavily U.S.-weighted despite the Toronto expansion

Pricing

Serverless inference (per token)

From $0.02/1M input tokens

  • Per-million input and output token billing
  • 200+ open-source models
  • OpenAI-compatible API
  • Example: Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct at $0.02/$0.04 per 1M tokens

Dedicated GPU deployment

From $0.89/GPU-hour

  • A100 80GB at $0.89/GPU-hour
  • H100 80GB at $2.20/GPU-hour
  • B200 180GB at $3.69/GPU-hour
  • Custom LLM deployments

Scheduling tiers

0.8x-1.5x base rate

  • Flex at 0.8x base
  • Standard at 1x base
  • Priority at 1.5x base

Language models bill per million input/output tokens; most other model types bill on inference execution time. Monthly invoicing thresholds span $20-$10,000 across five usage tiers. No free tier or trial is listed in the pricing documentation.

Key Features

  • 200+ open-source models on one API

    Serves text generation, embeddings, speech recognition and text-to-image models including Llama, Mistral and Claude through a single endpoint.

  • OpenAI-compatible APIs

    Existing OpenAI SDK integrations can point at DeepInfra with minimal code changes, lowering migration cost.

  • Owned GPU fleet across nine data centers

    DeepInfra owns and operates its own infrastructure, including a 1.7 MW Toronto site with 1,000+ NVIDIA Blackwell B300 GPUs opened July 2026.

  • Dedicated GPU deployments

    Custom LLM deployments bill hourly per GPU — A100 80GB at $0.89, H100 80GB at $2.20 and B200 180GB at $3.69 per GPU-hour.

  • Flex, Standard and Priority scheduling tiers

    Three service tiers priced at 0.8x, 1x and 1.5x base rates let teams trade latency guarantees against cost.

  • Enterprise security posture

    SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certified with a zero data retention policy on inference traffic.

Use Cases

  • Production LLM serving at scale

    Runs high-throughput text generation workloads that collectively process close to five trillion tokens per week.

  • Agentic AI backends

    Supplies the continuous, high-volume inference that autonomous agent systems generate in production.

  • Multimodal AI pipelines

    Provides embeddings, automatic speech recognition and text-to-image inference alongside text generation on one platform.
