Groq builds custom LPU (Language Processing Unit) chips that deliver the fastest LLM inference available. Llama and Mistral models run at 500+ tokens/second — 10-20x faster than GPU-based providers.
Reviewer scorecard
“Deploy Deno apps globally with zero config. The built-in KV store and BroadcastChannel are useful primitives.”
“The speed is mind-blowing. 500+ tokens/sec makes LLM responses feel instant. For latency-sensitive applications — autocomplete, real-time chat — nothing else comes close.”
“Simple and effective for Deno projects. The free tier is generous for side projects and experiments.”
“Speed is real but model selection is limited to open-source. No GPT or Claude. For apps that need the best model, you still need OpenAI/Anthropic. For speed-first use cases, Groq wins.”
“Deno Deploy proves the tight runtime + platform integration creates the best DX. Bun will follow this pattern.”
“Custom silicon for LLMs is the right long-term bet. GPUs are general-purpose. Groq is purpose-built. As open-source models match GPT quality, Groq becomes the default inference layer.”
