| Kai's verdict | B-tier for individuals — Claude does this for less. A-tier for teams needing brand consistency. | 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.) | S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week. | S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing. |
