| Kai's verdict | 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.) | B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money. | A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters. |
