Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Anyscale
- Pricing for high-end H100/B200-class GPUs is not published and requires contacting sales.
- Built around Ray, so teams not already using Ray face a steeper adoption curve than single-purpose inference APIs.
- No published fixed-fee subscription tier; all listed pricing is usage-based on-demand compute.
Fig
- Shut down on 1 September 2024. Amazon acquired Fig in August 2023 and folded it into Amazon Q Developer, which now carries the terminal autocomplete
- The standalone desktop app is no longer available or supported
- The completion specs remain open source on GitHub, but the product that consumed them is gone
