Fast, low-cost AI inference provider running LLMs on custom LPU chips via GroqCloud's pay-as-you-go API.
What it does
Groq delivers fast, low-cost AI inference powered by its custom LPU (Language Processing Unit) chips, which it pioneered in 2016 for inference workloads. Developers access models through GroqCloud on a pay-as-you-go, tokens-as-a-service basis, with a free API key to start. Its selling point is high speed and affordability at scale.
How to use: Developers can use Groq by accessing the GroqCloud™ platform or GroqRack™ Cluster. They can move seamlessly from other providers like OpenAI by changing three lines of code, setting the OPENAI_API_KEY to their Groq API Key, setting the base URL, and choosing their model.
