As pointed out by The Roundup, the inference space is booming right now.
Last week, @Baseten raised $300M at $5B valuation. They just announced the acquihire of @Inferless to "accelerate innovation in inference infrastructure."
One of the toughest engineering challenges we tackled at Inferless was Cold Starts a critical factor in evaluating true Serverless AI inference platforms.
Check out the video to learn how we made that happen along with a real example: Watch the demo here
The platform is incredibly user-friendly, and I’ve been impressed by how smooth the entire deployment process is. One standout feature is the cold start performance — it’s noticeably fast.
Highly recommend it for anyone looking to streamline their model deployment with excellent performance!
I'm Aishwarya, co-founder of Inferless with@nilesh_agarwal22 . We're thrilled to officially launch Inferless today!
Background Story: Two years ago, while running an AI-powered app startup, we hit a big wall: deploying AI models was expensive, complicated, and involved lots of idle GPU costs. The process simply didn’t make sense, so we decided to fix it ourselves.
Inferless is a Serverless GPU inference platform that helps developers deploy AI models effortlessly:
✅ Instant Deployments: Deploy any ML model within minutes—no hassle of managing infrastructure. ✅ Ultra-Low Cold Starts: Optimized for instant model loading ✅ Auto-Scaling & Cost-Efficient: Scale instantly from one to millions and only pay for what you actually use. ✅ Flexible Deployment: Use our UI, CLI, or run models remotely—however you prefer.
Since our private beta, we've processed millions of API requests and helped customers like Cleanlab, Spoofsense, Omi, Ushur etc move their production workloads to us.
And now, Inferless is open for everyone—no waitlists, just sign up and deploy instantly!
Feel free to ask me anything in the comments or provide any feedback. Your feedback and support mean the world. 🙌
@nilesh_agarwal22@aishwaryagoel_08 Congrats on the launch, Aishwarya and team! 🚀 Inferless looks like a much-needed step forward in AI infra.
how would you compare Inferless with alternatives like Modal, Banana, or Replicate? Particularly around cold starts, GPU utilization, and pricing transparency? 🔍
Also wondering: any plans to support fine-tuning or model training in the future, or is the focus staying purely on inference?
@kui_jason Hey yes we are super focussed on custom models with consistent cold starts and autoscaling. Also, our developer experience is seamless making it easy for anyone to deploy with very competitive pricing. Do try the platform out :)

Congratulations on the launch, Inferless! It's inspiring to see how you've turned deployment challenges into a streamlined, cost-efficient solution. As a long time, data scientist and data engineer this looks like a great tool to utilize. Wishing you continued success and can’t wait to see what comes next!
Been using Inferless since 1.5 years now. Absolutely seamless product and their support is awesome! They made deploying models to GPUs super easy for small team like ours and are always available incase of any questions or problems. Also their shared GPU pricing is not something I have seen anywhere. Love the product!
ML deployment made easy - no cold starts, scalable, and PAYG. Perfect for devs who want to focus on building, not infrastructure headaches. Kudos to the team.
