What we include
Companies that sell API access to run large language models, through serverless, dedicated, or bring-your-own-model endpoints, plus aggregators that route to such providers (labeled as aggregators). Each must have an active public website and a public way to start or buy.
Sources
Each fact comes from the vendor’s own website, documentation, pricing page, trust portal, or a primary release such as a company announcement or regulatory filing. Every profile lists its sources and the date we checked them.
What we do not do
We do not test providers, run benchmarks, score them, rank them, or publish reviews. Speed or quality figures appear only when the vendor publishes them, and we label them as the vendor’s claim. We do not claim partnerships or customer relationships we cannot source. Where a vendor publishes no price, we say “Contact vendor”. Where we found no certification, we say so; that is not a finding that the vendor lacks one.
Pricing
Per-token prices change often, so we do not copy price tables. We state whether pricing is published, link to it, and quote one example with the date we checked it.
Certifications
Listed as the vendor states them. Scope can differ by product, region, or subsidiary, so we recommend requesting reports.
Order
Provider lists default to alphabetical order. Filters and comparisons change only what is shown, not any ranking.
Updates
We re-check sources at least every 90 days and when vendors announce material changes.
Commercial policy
Today we accept no payment for listings or placement. If sponsorship is introduced later, sponsored items will be labeled, kept out of editorial comparisons and filters’ default order, and disclosed on this page.
