About Baseten
What is Baseten?
Baseten is a developer-first AI infrastructure company founded with the goal of helping engineering and ML teams bring AI products into production quickly and reliably. The platform supports the full model lifecycle — from packaging and training to deployment and inference — enabling users to deploy open-source, custom or fine-tuned models across modalities (e.g., text, image, audio) with autoscaling, multi-cloud support, observability and optimized runtimes. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0} Baseten emphasizes performance: for example, by leveraging NVIDIA Blackwell-based A4 VMs and their Inference Stack, they achieved up to 225% better cost-performance in high-throughput inference relative to typical setups. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1} The platform offers three core workflows: dedicated deployments for full control, model APIs for fast integration, and training infrastructure for fine-tuning or custom model creation. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
Key Features of Baseten
Serve models with low latency, high throughput and production-grade SLAs using Baseten’s optimized Inference Stack with support for TensorRT-LLM, speculative decoding, custom kernels and more. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
