End users — chat, projects, file uploads, agents, image gen all in one product.
Workflows that don't need a programmable API (writing, research, drafting).
Comparing models side-by-side in a single subscription (Poe).

Avoid for

Programmatic integration — use the maker's first-party API instead.
Workloads needing reproducible outputs across requests.

FAQ

Frequently asked.

How does Claude.ai bill for inference?

Most inference providers bill per million input + output tokens. Some (like Replicate, fal.ai) use per-second billing where you pay for actual compute time on the underlying GPU. Per-token rates are listed on each model's access row.

Does Claude.ai offer an OpenAI-compatible API?

Not by default. Use Claude.ai's native SDK — most clients support a thin OpenAI compatibility wrapper if you need it.

Which models does Claude.ai host?

See the model list on this page. Each row links to a per-model show page where you can compare across every provider that carries the same SKU.

What's the difference between Claude.ai and a GPU rental host?

Claude.ai hosts inference for you — you pay per token, the provider runs the GPU. GPU rental (Vast.ai, Lambda, RunPod) gives you the raw GPU at $/hr and you run the model yourself. Both have catalog pages on RentGPU; pick based on whether you want managed inference or full control.
