Together AI
Inference and fine-tuning cloud for open-source models like Llama, DeepSeek, and Qwen.
+ Broad open-model catalogue plus fine-tuning and dedicated GPU endpoints.
− No proprietary models, so you cannot route to GPT or Claude.

All 9 alternatives →+ Serves many concurrent requests on GPUs far faster than llama.cpp-based tools.
− Linux and NVIDIA-centric; painful on Mac or consumer hardware.
+ Unified provider interface and React hooks make streaming chat UIs trivial.
− Major-version upgrades have required significant rewrites.
+ Every open model ends up here, with Inference Providers routing to multiple backends.
− Serverless inference rate limits and cold starts make it unreliable for production.
+ One OpenAI-compatible endpoint for Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and open models with automatic fallbacks.
− Adds a routing layer, so latency and rate limits depend on the upstream provider chosen.
+ Self-hosted gateway with spend tracking, virtual keys, and fallbacks across providers.
− Huge dependency surface and frequent releases that occasionally break provider mappings.
