Cerebras Inference

Cerebras Inference provides API access to fast cloud inference for language and multimodal models.

Cerebras Inference lets developers run supported AI models through an OpenAI-compatible API. It is intended for coding, research, voice, automation, agentic workflows, and other applications where response speed matters.

The service offers public endpoints, partner integrations, and dedicated enterprise endpoints. The product page advertises a free trial with $5 in credit; developer usage is pay per token, while enterprise access requires contacting Cerebras. Current pricing tier amounts were not rendered on the pricing page.
