Hyperbolic

Hyperbolic is an open-access AI cloud and decentralized GPU marketplace serving 200,000+ builders with affordable inference and bare-metal compute. The platform combines a serverless OpenAI-compatible inference API spanning 25+ open-source LLMs (including the only public Llama-3.1-405B-Base in BF16), image and audio models, with an on-demand GPU rental marketplace aggregating idle H100 / H200 / A100 / RTX 4090 capacity from third-party suppliers at 3-10x lower cost than hyperscalers. Reserved clusters, dedicated endpoints, an OpenAI-drop-in Python and TypeScript SDK, a Go CLI, an MCP server, the Hyperbolic AgentKit, the open-source Hyper-dOS distributed operating system, and Coinbase x402 crypto payments round out the stack.

Hyperbolic publishes 5 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Audio Generation API, Chat Completions API, Completions API, and 2 more. Tagged areas include AI, Artificial Intelligence, Compute, Decentralized, and DePIN.

The Hyperbolic catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 2 Spectral governance rulesets.

Hyperbolic’s developer surface includes authentication, developer portal, documentation, getting-started guide, signup flow, sandbox, engineering blog, and 53 more developer resources.
