Together AI provides fast, cheap inference for open-source models like Llama, Mistral, and DeepSeek. Features dedicated endpoints, fine-tuning, and a serverless API. Known for competitive pricing and low latency.
Reviewer scorecard
“The standard for production container orchestration. Managed K8s (EKS, GKE, AKS) removes most operational burden.”
“Cheapest way to run Llama and Mistral models in production. The inference speed is competitive with major providers. OpenAI-compatible API makes switching easy.”
“Massively over-engineered for 90% of workloads. Most teams would be better served by simpler deployment platforms.”
“The pricing is genuinely good and reliability has improved. The fine-tuning workflow is straightforward. A solid choice for open-source model deployment.”
“The API model Kubernetes established is becoming the universal infrastructure abstraction layer.”
“Together is betting that the future is open-source models. As Llama and Mistral improve, inference providers like Together become the AWS of AI.”
