What it does

Blazing fast inference for open-source, custom, and fine-tuned AI models at massive scale. Automatically capture and optimize your LLM performance in production. Serve frontier AI models with confidence. Switch from OpenAI , Anthropic and Gemini to open-source models running on infrastructure optimized specifically for your workload. Everything you need to monitor existing providers, evaluate new models, and deploy at scale. Learn how teams like GravityAds and Cal AI use Inference.net to deploy, observe, evaluate, and train GPT-5 quality models at low cost and lightening fast speed. We handle the infrastructure, so you don't have to. Learn how Gravity Ads used Cataylst Train and Deploy to…from inference.net

    Hi HN! We're Gabriel & Viraj, and we're excited to open source TensorZero. To be a little cheeky, TensorZero is an open-source platform that helps LLM applications graduate from API wrappers into defensible AI products. 1. Integrate our model gateway 2. Send metrics or feedback 3. Unlock compounding improvements in quality, cost, and latency It enables a data & learning flywheel for LLMs by unifying: • Inference: one API for all LLMs, with <1ms P99 overhead • Observability: inference & feedback → your database • Optimization: better prompts, models, inference strategies • Experimentation:…

    G'day, HN! I'm one of the maintainers of `llm`. I've been working alongside a trusty group of contributors to bring this project to life, and we're now at a point where we're ready to share it with the world. Large language models (LLMs) are taking the computing world by storm due to their emergent abilities that allow them to perform a wide variety of tasks, including translation, summarization, code generation, and even some degree of reasoning. However, the ecosystem around LLMs is still in its infancy, and it can be difficult to get started with these models. `llm` is a one-stop shop for…
