Modal
Serverless computing platform optimized for running GPU workloads and ML inference.
Think of it like
Serverless for GPUs; scale to zero when not in use.
Example
Deploy a function that runs a Llama inference; Modal scales automatically.
How it actually works
Modal is built for bursty ML workloads; you define a function, it handles GPU provisioning. Good for webhooks, batch jobs, and inference.
For product teams
Cost efficiency for variable workloads.
For engineers
Simple programming model; good for inference APIs and batch processing.
