Chutes is a permissionless, serverless AI compute platform that lets developers deploy and run any model as an autoscaling "chute" on decentralized GPU capacity (Bittensor Subnet 64). It exposes a single OpenAI-compatible inference endpoint at llm.chutes.ai/v1 for hundreds of open-source LLMs, plus a management REST API at api.chutes.ai for building images and deploying, listing, and operating chutes.
