Vultr

Hosted inference alongside GPU infrastructure

Vultr's AI services include managed inference for language, code, image and speech workloads. Serverless Inference provisions resources as requests arrive and offers vector-store retrieval for contextual chat applications. Model availability changes with the service's catalog. [1]

An early Vultr Cloud Inference beta opened on private reservation in March 2024. The October 17, 2024 announcement described a broader service with turnkey retrieval-augmented generation, private GPU clusters and an API compatible with existing OpenAI-style clients. It was an expansion of the service, rather than its first-ever inference offering. [3][2][4]

This gives application teams a managed route from stored documents to model responses, while Vultr handles the serving infrastructure. The familiar API format describes integration compatibility; it does not establish an OpenAI partnership or that Vultr developed the third-party models it hosts. [1][2]
