PaidDecentralized serverless inference for open models on Bittensor
What is Chutes?
Chutes is a serverless inference platform that runs open models on GPUs supplied by a decentralized network built on Bittensor. It serves popular models such as DeepSeek, Qwen and GLM cheaply, and is widely used by roleplay apps and developers.
Developers call models through an OpenAI-compatible API or deploy their own code as a chute that scales across the network. Miners provide GPU capacity and are rewarded for reliable, verified work.
Chutes no longer offers a free tier, and usage is paid through subscriptions or per-token credits. Capacity can tighten on the most popular models at busy times.
