SambaNova Cloud

SambaCloud is a hosted API platform for running open-source AI models, with OpenAI-compatible endpoints, model integrations, and token-based pricing.

SambaNova Cloud

SambaCloud provides hosted inference for models including DeepSeek, Llama, Qwen, Gemma, MiniMax, and gpt-oss. Developers can access the models through an OpenAI-compatible API, a web playground, integrations, and starter kits.

Plans include Free, Developer, and Enterprise options. Usage is billed by model and token volume; Enterprise customers can request subscription pricing, custom rate limits, on-request models, and features such as BYOC. It is an inference service, not a tool for training or hosting arbitrary model code.

Features

  • OpenAI-compatible API endpoints
  • Hosted inference for open-source models
  • Web playground for testing models
  • Support for text, image, and audio-capable models
  • Integrations with CrewAI, Hugging Face, Cline, and AWS
  • Automatic prompt caching for MiniMax-M2.7
  • Production and preview model access
  • Enterprise options including BYOC and custom rate limits

Use cases

  • Build applications with hosted open-source language models
  • Prototype prompts and model calls in the web playground
  • Add model inference to coding and agent workflows
  • Run support bots using repeated documentation prompts
  • Create applications that reuse long prompts with prompt caching
