DeepInfra is a cloud inference platform that lets developers run open and proprietary models through a simple, OpenAI-compatible API without managing hardware. It serves text generation, embeddings, image/audio/video, and speech models with token-based, pay-as-you-go pricing, and offers DeepCluster dedicated NVIDIA GPU capacity for heavier workloads. It is SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certified with a zero data-retention policy.

Capabilities 6

What it actually does — grouped by capability family.

  • Model inference / serving (primary capability)
  • Multi-model access (primary capability)
  • Embeddings (secondary capability)
  • Transcription (STT) (secondary capability)
  • Speech synthesis (TTS) (secondary capability)
  • Text-to-image (secondary capability)

Pros & cons

  • 100+ models behind one OpenAI-compatible API
  • Dedicated GPU clusters (DeepCluster) available
  • SOC 2 / ISO 27001, zero data retention
  • No hardware to manage
  • Pay-as-you-go only, no free tier
  • Skews toward open models
  • Not a fine-tuning-first platform

    Groq

    Low-latency inference for open-weights models on custom LPU chips.

    GroqCloud serves open-weights models (Llama, DeepSeek, Qwen, Kimi) on Groq's purpose-built LPU hardware, hitting hundreds of tokens per second where GPUs manage tens. OpenAI-compatible API with a free tier; the default when token latency is the product.
