The honest brief
Anyscale
Built by Ray's creators — runs training, batch inference, and data processing on your own multi-cloud GPUs, not a fixed serverless endpoint.
- Built by the original Ray creators
- Scales across AWS/GCP/Azure GPUs
- One engine for training, data, and inference
- Enterprise security and observability
- Aimed at ML engineers, steep for beginners
- Usage-based GPU costs add up
- Overkill for small single-node jobs
Baseten
Pairs prebuilt Model APIs with dedicated Truss deployments and scale-to-zero, so you don't pay for idle GPUs.
- Prebuilt Model APIs for Llama, DeepSeek
- Dedicated GPU/CPU deploys for custom models
- Open-source Truss packaging format
- Production-grade observability and autoscaling
- Dedicated GPU rates run pricier than Modal
- Per-replica cost doubles for redundancy
- Engineering effort to package custom models
