Replicate features

  • One-line model inference. Run any public model with a single line of code in Node, Python or HTTP.
  • Fine-tune with your data. Improve existing models by training on your own datasets via the Replicate API.
  • Deploy custom models. Package models with Cog to create private, scalable API endpoints.
  • Pay-as-you-go pricing. Only pay for compute time or per-output token/image; no upfront fees.
  • Hardware selection. Choose CPU or GPU instances (A100, H100, L40S, T4) and scale automatically.

Turing features

  • Web browsing. Turing can navigate the internet to retrieve up-to-date information.
  • Question answering. It answers queries on any topic using its AI model.
  • System access. Turing can interact with your operating system to perform tasks.
  • CLI version. A command-line interface lets you run Turing directly from the terminal.
  • Account sign-in. Users sign in to sync settings and usage across devices.
