Canonical ID: `cef558aa-d2b3-4abd-94bb-c7827e515339`

## Key facts

- **Product line:** Model inference API (200+ open-source LLM/image/video/audio models), GPU instances, bare-metal GPUs, and a serverless GPU tier
- **Global footprint:** Advertises deployment across 20+ locations, 4+ continents, and 14 global regions; does not publicly name colocation partners or campuses
- **GPU inventory disclosure:** Company has not publicly disclosed GPU counts, generation mix, or MW capacity; markets Nvidia-based on-demand and spot instances with per-second billing
- **Posted inference pricing (sample):** Llama 3.1 8B at $0.02 per million input tokens; DeepSeek V4 Flash at $0.14 in / $0.28 out per million tokens; premium reasoning models up to ~$2+ per million input
- **Spot and batch discounts:** Spot GPU instances marketed at ~50% below on-demand; standing 50% batch-inference discount on input and output tokens for supported models
- **Named channel partners / customers:** Hugging Face (Inference Providers), OpenRouter, Quora's Poe, TiDB, Kilo Code, Fish Audio, Wiz, Simular, Hygo, Gizmo listed as customers or partners on marketing surfaces
- **Inference-stack partnerships:** Uses and co-markets with vLLM and SGLang inference runtimes; integrated with Hugging Face model deployment
- **Positioning axis:** Inference-first, long-tail model catalog, price-competitive against Together AI / Fireworks / DeepInfra; not a training-hyperscaler lane like CoreWeave or Lambda
- **Media / multimodal APIs:** Image generation from $0.0225 to $0.36 per image (Flux, Qwen families); video generation $0.084 to $2.25 depending on duration and resolution (Kling, Wan, Minimax families); TTS $15 per million characters
- **Funding disclosure:** No priced venture round publicly reported as of August 2026; company has not disclosed a lead investor or total capital raised on its own surfaces
- **Headcount disclosure:** Employee count not disclosed on the company site as of August 2026

## Common questions

### What is Novita AI?

Novita AI positions itself as an "AI-native cloud for builders and agents," selling low-cost inference for more than 200 open and open-weight models behind an OpenAI-compatible API, plus GPU instances, bare-metal GPUs, and a serverless GPU tier that scales to zero in about 30 seconds. Its posted rates run from roughly $0.02 per million input tokens for small Llama models to a couple of dollars per million for premium reasoning models, with a standing 50% batch discount and cache-read pricing on select routes. That model catalog and price point put it in the same lane as Together AI, Fireworks, and DeepInfra rather than the training-hyperscaler lane occupied by CoreWeave or Lambda.\n\nInfrastructure-wise, Novita advertises a distributed footprint across "20+ locations" and "4+ continents" (14 global regions), delivered through a mix of GPU instance types (on-demand and spot at roughly 50% off) rather than owned campuses. The company does not publicly disclose GPU counts, generation mix, MW capacity, or datacenter partners; that is a deliberate contrast to the disclosure posture of listed peers like CoreWeave. Silicon partnerships center on the Nvidia stack, and inference is served through open toolchains including vLLM and SGLang.\n\nCommercially, Novita is best known as a supplier under other people's front doors: Hugging Face lists it among Inference Providers, OpenRouter routes traffic to it, and Quora's Poe surfaces its models. The trade-off of that channel-heavy strategy is that Novita's own brand, funding history, headcount, and cap table are not well documented in the public record; the company has not announced a priced venture round to major outlets as of mid-2026.
