Pricing
PaidTogether AI uses pay-as-you-go pricing across its products. Serverless inference is billed per model, priced per 1M tokens for text (e.g., MiniMax M3 at $0.30 input/$1.20 output, GLM-5.2 at $1.40 input/$4.40 output, gpt-oss-120B at $0.15 input/$0.60 output), per image for image generation (e.g., FLUX.1 [schnell] at $0.0027/image), per video for video models (e.g., ByteDance Seedance 2.5 at $0.115/video, Google Veo 3.0 at $1.60/video), and per audio minute or character for speech models. Dedicated Inference runs on single-tenant GPUs starting at $5.49/GPU/hour on-demand for NVIDIA HGX H100 and $8.99/hour for HGX B200, with reserved options available via sales. GPU Clusters offer on-demand rates from $3.99/hour (H100) to $8.19/hour (B200), with reserved pricing dropping as low as $3.19/hour for 181+ day H100 commitments. Sandbox compute costs $0.0446/vCPU/hour and $0.0149/GiB RAM/hour, with Code Interpreter sessions at $0.03 per 60-minute session. Fine-tuning is priced per 1M tokens processed, ranging from $0.48 (LoRA, up to 16B parameters) to $8.00 (full fine-tuning, 70-100B parameters) for standard models, with specialized model pricing (e.g., DeepSeek-R1, GLM-5) ranging $5-$40 per 1M tokens plus a minimum job charge. Managed Storage costs $0.16/GiB/month.

Summary
Full-stack AI cloud for inference, fine-tuning, and GPU clusters
Create AI-powered videos and interactive visual AI agents
Together AI Pros & Cons
Pros
- OpenAI-compatible API makes migrating from closed-model providers straightforward
- Transparent per-model, pay-as-you-go pricing across 200+ open-source models
- Vertically integrated GPU cloud offers competitive on-demand and reserved rates
- Backed by deep systems research, including FlashAttention and other efficiency breakthroughs
- Full-stack coverage from inference to fine-tuning to raw GPU compute in one platform
- Proven at scale with customers like Cursor, Zoom, Quora, and ElevenLabs
Cons
- Pricing spans many separate model and product pages, making total cost estimation more complex than flat-rate competitors
- Dedicated GPU and reserved cluster pricing largely requires contacting sales rather than transparent self-serve rates
- Focus on open-source models means access to closed frontier models like GPT or Claude isn't the platform's core strength
- Fine-tuning costs vary significantly by model size and technique, requiring careful comparison before committing
- Provisioned throughput and PTU-based pricing has a learning curve for teams new to capacity-based billing
