Overview

Hero
Get Started
Replicate is a leading cloud platform enabling software developers to run, fine-tune, and deploy machine learning models effortlessly with a simple API. Removing the barriers of complex AI infrastructure, Replicate offers access to thousands of open-source models as well as the ability to host custom solutions. Founded in 2019 and based in San Francisco, its mission is to make AI as accessible and straightforward as traditional software development.

How It Works

  • Run Models: Access and run thousands of community-published, production-ready AI models with just one line of code.
  • Fine-tune Models: Enhance models with your data to create new, highly specialised solutions for particular tasks or styles.
  • Deploy Custom Models: Use Cog, Replicate’s open-source tool, to package and deploy your machine learning models. Replicate takes care of API server generation and cloud deployment with automatic scaling.

Use Cases

Pricing

Replicate uses a pay-as-you-use model, billing by the second for compute time.
  • Public Models: Billed for active processing time only; pricing varies by hardware, and certain models charge per image, per million tokens, or per video second. Setup and idle time are free.
  • Private Models: Usually billed for all online time (setup, idle, and active); 'fast booting fine-tunes' are an exception, billed only for active processing.
  • Hardware Pricing (per second):
    • CPU: £0.000100/sec (£0.36/hr)
    • Nvidia T4 GPU: £0.000225/sec (£0.81/hr)
    • Nvidia L40S GPU: £0.000975/sec (£3.51/hr)
    • 2x Nvidia L40S GPU: £0.001950/sec (£7.02/hr)
    • Nvidia A100 (80GB) GPU: £0.001400/sec (£5.04/hr)
    • 2x Nvidia A100 (80GB) GPU: £0.002800/sec (£10.08/hr)
    • 4x Nvidia A100 (80GB) GPU: £0.005600/sec (£20.16/hr)
    • 8x Nvidia A100 (80GB) GPU: £0.011200/sec (£40.32/hr)
    • Nvidia H100 GPU: £0.001525/sec (£5.49/hr)
  • Enterprise & Volume Discounts: These include priority support, higher GPU limits, performance SLAs, and assistance with onboarding and custom models.

FAQs

What is Replicate?

Replicate is a cloud platform that allows software developers to run, fine-tune, and deploy machine learning models using a simple API, abstracting away the complexities of AI infrastructure.

How does Replicate work?

Replicate enables you to run thousands of pre-existing AI models with a single line of code, fine-tune models with your own data, or deploy your custom models using Cog. The platform manages infrastructure, including automatic scaling and GPU management.

What types of AI models can I run on Replicate?

You can run various AI models, including those for image generation, video generation, voice cloning, speech generation, image restoration, large language models (LLMs) for text generation, and more. Both open-source and proprietary models are available.

Can I fine-tune AI models with my own data on Replicate?

Yes, Replicate allows you to fine-tune models like SDXL with your own data, creating new, specialised models tailored to your specific needs.

How can I deploy my own custom AI models?

You can deploy custom machine learning models using Cog. Cog packages your model, generates an API server, and deploys it on a cloud cluster with automatic scaling handled by Replicate.

How does Replicate's pricing work?

Replicate uses a pay-as-you-use model, billing by the second for compute time. Public models are billed for active processing time; private models are generally billed for all online time, with exceptions for certain fine-tuned models.
