Baseten provides high-performance inference for teams that have outgrown shared API endpoints. We deliver the performance of custom-built infrastructure with the ease of a managed platform, allowing you to deploy and scale any model behind a production-grade API.

Mission-critical inference

Inference is the core of your application. When it fails, your product stops working. We built Baseten to handle mission-critical workloads, offering 99.99% uptime and low-latency performance at any scale. Operating thousands of GPUs across multiple regions and cloud providers exposes the limits of traditional deployment. Single points of failure, regional capacity constraints, and the overhead of managing heterogeneous clouds create significant operational risk. We solved these problems with our Multi-cloud Capacity Management (MCM) system.

Multi-cloud Capacity Management (MCM)

MCM is a unified control layer that provisions and scales resources across 10+ clouds and regions. It handles the complexity of cloud-agnostic orchestration, giving you a single pane of glass for your entire inference fleet. Whether you run in our cloud, yours, or both, the experience is identical. MCM enables three deployment modes, all sharing the same high-performance inference stack:

Baseten Cloud

Fully managed, multi-cloud inference. This is the fastest path to production, offering limitless scale and global latency optimization. We manage the infrastructure so you can focus on your models.

Baseten Self-hosted

The full Baseten stack inside your own VPC. Use this when you have strict data security, privacy, or sovereignty requirements. You maintain complete control over your data and networking while benefiting from Baseten’s autoscaling and performance optimizations.

Baseten Hybrid

The best of both worlds. Run core workloads in your VPC for maximum control and burst to Baseten Cloud on demand. This approach eliminates the trade-off between strict compliance and the need for elastic flex capacity.

The Baseten advantage

ML teams at Abridge, Writer, and Patreon use Baseten to serve millions of users. Our platform is built on four pillars that ensure your success in production:
  • Model performance: Our engineers apply the latest research in custom kernels and runtimes, delivering low latency and high throughput out of the box.
  • Reliable infrastructure: Deploy across clusters and clouds with active-active reliability and built-in redundancy.
  • Operational control: Use deep observability, secret management, and fine-grained autoscaling to maintain your SLAs.
  • Compliance by design: SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and GDPR compliance ensure that your deployments meet the highest standards for data security.
