Replicate
Pay-as-you-go API to run and host open AI models in the cloud without managing infrastructure.
Category: Development & Code · Agent & RAG frameworks
Features
Replicate is an API (application programming interface) to run open models in the cloud or publish your own with Cog. Billing has no fixed subscription: public model price or instance runtime. GPU means graphics processing unit.
Private instances on dedicated hardware bill while online. Multi-GPU setups such as 8x H100 need committed spend. Enterprise raises GPU limits.
- Run public AI models in the cloud without owning GPUs
- Build and host your own models with Cog
- Access 50,000+ hosted models
- Pay as you go by model price or hardware runtime
- Dedicated instances bill online time including idle; fast-booting fine-tunes bill active time only
