Smolagents Finops

smolagents is a free open-source library; FinOps considerations apply to the Hugging Face Inference Provider costs incurred when running agents against cloud-hosted LLMs. Hugging Face uses a transparent pass-through billing model with no markup over provider rates. Costs are metered per inference request based on compute time and hardware cost. All tiers receive monthly included credits; pay-as-you-go credits can be purchased after credits are exhausted.

Smolagents Finops is the FinOps profile for smolagents on the APIs.io network.
