About
The Grid is a spot market for LLM inference where suppliers bid in real time to serve AI requests, allowing buyers to pay the live clearing price per token. It supports OpenAI and Anthropic API formats and requires only a few lines of code to integrate. The platform offers automatic quality assurance, zero lock-in, and limit orders for cost-conscious teams.
Problem
Teams overpay for AI inference because they are locked into fixed list prices with no market competition.
For
Developers and engineering teams running LLM workloads at any scale
How it works
Suppliers bid in real time to serve API requests, and The Grid automatically routes each request to the best qualifying supplier at the lowest available price.
