BentoML
FreemiumOpen-source model serving and a managed platform for AI inference
What is BentoML?
BentoML is an open-source framework for packaging and serving AI models and custom inference pipelines, and the Bento Inference Platform runs those deployments in production. Teams can deploy open models such as Llama, DeepSeek, Qwen and Flux, or their own models of any architecture.
The platform adds deployment automation and CI/CD, observability, access control, quota tracking and performance tuning. Its compute engine handles autoscaling, scale-to-zero, cold-start acceleration and orchestration across regions and clouds.
You can run it in your own cloud, on-prem Kubernetes, or on Bento Cloud with NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. The company also publishes an LLM inference handbook and a performance explorer for comparing model serving setups.
