Introducing Nebius AI Studio: Achieve fast, flexible inference today

Our new platform not only allows application builders to use generative AI without significant effort but does so at a fraction of the cost. Our goal is to democratize access to cutting-edge AI technologies, enabling businesses of all sizes to innovate and compete in the AI space.

Today, we are thrilled to announce the public launch of Nebius AI Studio and its first product: our cutting-edge inference service.

Integrating AI capabilities into products and services is a complex, time-consuming and often costly process. It requires navigating a landscape of diverse models, managing computational resources and optimizing for both performance and cost. For many teams, the challenge lies not just in accessing powerful AI models, but in deploying them efficiently and scaling operations as needs grow.

Recognizing these challenges, we set out to create a solution that would make advanced AI capabilities more accessible, flexible and cost-effective.

With Nebius AI Studio, your team gains access to:

  • A high-performance, cost-effective inference platform that delivers results up to 4.5x faster than competitors*, with pricing up to 50% lower than leading providers.

  • A flexible, user-friendly environment for experimenting with and using state-of-the-art open-source models, requiring no MLOps expertise.

  • A scalable solution that grows with your needs, from initial prototyping to large-scale production deployments.

Powerful models at your fingertips

Nebius AI Studio offers a wide range of state-of-the-art open-source models, including Llama, Mistral and more. Our infrastructure ensures ultra-low latency, crucial for applications like real-time chatbots and content generation.

Our flagship hosted model, Meta’s Llama-3.1-405B, offers performance comparable to GPT-4 at half the cost, demonstrating our commitment to providing top-tier AI capabilities without the premium price tag.

Optimize performance and cost with a dual-flavor approach

Our flexible dual-flavor approach allows you to fine-tune your cost-performance balance:

  • Fast flavor: Delivers blazing speed for time-sensitive applications, such as real-time chatbots, instant language translation and interactive coding assistance.

  • Base flavor: Optimized for cost-efficiency in less time-critical tasks, like batch content creation (blog posts, product descriptions, marketing copy), offering substantial savings compared to other providers.

This flexibility enables you to optimize your AI operations based on specific use case requirements, a feature not commonly found in other platforms.

Intuitive Playground for seamless experimentation

Our user-friendly Playground allows you to:

  • Test and compare different models without writing code

  • Adjust generation parameters to fine-tune outputs

  • Quickly view API code for easy transition to implementation

The Playground’s side-by-side comparison feature allows for easy evaluation of different models or parameter settings, helping you make informed decisions about which configuration best suits your needs.

Seamless integration and scaling

With our OpenAI-compatible API, integrating Nebius AI Studio into your existing workflows is straightforward. This compatibility ensures a smooth transition for projects currently using other AI services, allowing you to leverage our performance and pricing benefits with minimal code changes.

Our API is designed with ease of use in mind. Most developers find they can switch from other providers to Nebius AI Studio with just a few lines of code changed, significantly reducing the time and effort required to adopt our platform.

The future of AI development

Nebius AI Studio is committed to evolving alongside the rapidly changing AI landscape. Our roadmap includes expanding our capabilities with features such as:

  • Fine-tuning: Customize models for your specific use cases

  • Evaluation tools: Measure and improve your models’ performance

  • Advanced prompt engineering: Optimize your interactions with AI models

We strive to provide a comprehensive AI development environment, all accessible through a single, intuitive platform.

Start building the future today

We’re excited to invite developers, data scientists and businesses of all sizes to experience the power, flexibility and cost-effectiveness of Nebius AI Studio.

To celebrate the launch of Nebius AI Studio, we’re offering our first users $100 worth of free tokens to use on our API and Playground for a limited time. Don’t miss this opportunity to kickstart your AI journey with us!
