Running DeepSeek V3 (685B) requires 8×H100 GPUs which is about $14k/month. Most developers only need 15-25 tok/s. sllm lets you join a cohort of developers sharing a dedicated node. You reserve a spot with your card, and nobody is charged until the cohort fills. Prices start at $5/mo for smaller models. The LLMs are completely private (we don't log any traffic). The API is OpenAI-compatible (we run vLLM), so you just swap the base URL. Currently offering a few models.

Hi HN — we're the team behind Arch (https://github.com/katanemo/archgw), an open-source proxy for LLMs written in Rust. Today we're releasing Arch-Router (https://huggingface.co/katanemo/Arch-Router-1.5B), a 1.5B router model for preference-based routing, now integrated into the proxy. As teams integrate multiple LLMs - each with different strengths, styles, or cost/latency profiles — routing the right prompt to the right model becomes a critical part of the application design. But it's still an open problem. Most routing systems fall into two…

I spent days trying to deploy DeepSeek on a server this year. Install Ubuntu, NVIDIA drivers, CUDA, Docker, configure vLLM, debug memory issues, tune performance settings. Every deployment was different. Every server had its own quirks. Worse still, these issues are more pronounced on non-NVIDIA accelerators, such as Ascend or Intel NPU. So, we made LLMOne, which will automates this. You can use it at bare metal (via BMC) or SSH (coming soon) into an existing server, select models, and it handles everything: OS installation, driver setup, inference engine configuration, model deployment, and…

Hi HN, I built a desktop client for DeepSeek Harness (DeepSeek's open-source coding agent). V1 wraps the official Harness Web UI in an Electron shell with some desktop additions — installer, system tray, built-in browser panel (visible Edge, so you can watch the agent browse), and a sandboxed terminal. One-click install, just need an API key. V2 is in development — replacing the upstream Web UI with a custom workbench built for desktop. Source available under PolyForm Perimeter. Would love feedback on what you'd want from a desktop coding agent client.

I built a specialized package of DeepSeek V4 Flash 0731 (originally 284B total parameters, 13B active), preserving reasoning, tool calling and coding capabilities: https://huggingface.co/steadfastgaze/DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731-... I let it write a minimal C compiler targeting ARM64, then test the result with Fibonacci and FizzBuzz programs, and it succeeded in less than 1 hour, with the full recording at: https://youtu.be/XiwSilmV8B0 You can run it on Silicon Macs with my engine https://github.com/steadfastgaze/MoEspresso, while one of the…
