TaglineVS Code fork that made AI coding actually work.Blazing-fast, pay-as-you-go inference API for open-source LLMs and multimodal models, now plugged directly into the Hugging Face ecosystem.Spreadsheets with AI + live integrations baked in.Chinese open-weight powerhouse. Crazy cheap, genuinely smart.

PricingFree + $20/mo Pro + $40/mo BusinessFree $5 credit on signup, then pay-as-you-go from $0.06/M tokensFree + $19-$89/user/moFree web + ultra-cheap API (~$0.14/M input tokens)
Best forDevelopers. Non-developers who want to ship working code.Backend developers and ML engineers who want the cheapest reliable inference for open-weight LLMs in production, especially those already living inside the Hugging Face ecosystem.Ops teams, marketers, anyone building dashboards from multiple sources.Developers + cost-conscious builders. Anyone fine with self-hosting.
Strengths
  • Tab completion feels like mind-reading
  • Composer for multi-file edits
  • Runs Claude, GPT, Gemini — you pick
  • Among the cheapest per-token rates for open-source models — consistently undercuts Together AI and Fireworks on small models
  • OpenAI-compatible API means zero migration headache from existing stacks
  • Now a first-class Hugging Face Inference Provider, so HF-native workflows (SDKs, Playground, agent harnesses) get DeepInfra with a one-line swap
  • Runs on H100/A100 and NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs with auto-scaling and 99.982% uptime SLA on dedicated tier
  • Supports LoRA adapter deployments and private custom model hosting, not just public models
  • Pull live data from Stripe, Slack, Google Analytics, etc.
  • AI functions inside cells
  • Modern UX
  • Open weights you can self-host
  • Strong reasoning + math
  • Near-free API pricing
  • DeepSeek-V3 / R1 are serious models
Weaknesses
  • Can feel overwhelming for non-coders
  • Expensive at scale
  • Primarily developer/API-first — no meaningful consumer-facing product or chat UI to speak of
  • Model breadth (77 tracked) lags behind aggregators like OpenRouter or Replicate for niche or newly-released models
  • No free tier beyond the $5 signup credit; requires a card or prepayment to continue
  • Not a full Excel replacement for heavy users
  • Integrations best on paid tiers
  • Data goes to servers in China — privacy concerns for business use
  • Chinese policy filters
  • English polish trails Western models
Kai's verdictS-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.DeepInfra is the quiet workhorse of the inference API space — serious price performance on H100s, a genuinely clean OpenAI-compatible API, and now a native HF provider makes it a strong default choice for any team running open-source models at scale. (Verdict pending Phi's full review.)A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick.
