RunInfra
RunInfra is an automated platform for optimizing and deploying open-source AI models in production. It takes a model and workload description as input, then automatically benchmarks and compares various serving engines (vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM, etc.) across different GPU types to find the best configuration. The platform tunes optimizations such as quantization, speculative decoding, FlashAttention, continuous batching, and kernel autotuning without manual configuration. Finally, it provides a deployment kit with Dockerfile, serve scripts, and config files, allowing users to either deploy on RunInfra's cloud with per-token billing or export the stack to self-host on their own infrastructure. The service is designed to eliminate the complexity of model serving by offering a 'from prompt to production stack' experience. Users describe the inference workload in plain English, and RunInfra generates an optimization plan, executes it, and delivers a benchmarked, tuned deployment ready for use. It supports a wide range of open-source models from Hugging Face, including Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek, Mistral, and multimodal models like Whisper. The platform tracks latency, throughput, VRAM, and cost, providing transparent benchmark receipts. RunInfra targets teams that need to deploy open-source LLMs efficiently without deep expertise in inference optimization. It caters to various deployment targets, including RunInfra's managed cloud, RunPod, Modal, or any custom environment via the exportable stack. The platform is backed by Y Combinator and emphasizes ownership and no vendor lock-in.
