## what it does
Overview
Together AI is a US-based inference and training platform (San Francisco) hosting open-source models — DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 / Flash 0731, Kimi K3, GLM-5.3/5.3-Flash/5.2, MiniMax M3, Qwen3.8 2.4T A95B, GPT OSS 120B, Llama 3.3 70B, plus image / audio / video / embedding / moderation families. The Python SDK and the OpenAI-compatible REST API are both first-class.
Why Together AI?
- US data residency. Use DeepSeek / Qwen / GLM weights without routing through China.
- OpenAI-compatible REST at
https://api.together.ai/v1— drop-in for OpenAI clients. - Serverless for prototyping; dedicated endpoints for prod latency; GPU clusters with on-demand B200s for training and large batch jobs.

Quick start
from together import Together
client = Together()
completion = client.chat.completions.create(
model="moonshotai/Kimi-K3",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What are the top 3 things to do in New York?"}],
)
print(completion.choices[0].message.content)
cURL works the same way:
curl -X POST "https://api.together.ai/v1/chat/completions" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $TOGETHER_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"model":"moonshotai/Kimi-K3","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Top 3 things to do in NY?"}]}'
Surfaces
| Surface | Use it for |
|---|---|

| Provisioned Throughput | Reserved capacity at predictable cost. |
| Dedicated Inference | Single-tenant GPUs for production isolation. |
| GPU Clusters | On-demand B200s with attached storage for training or large batch. |
| Fine-Tuning | LoRA / full-param SFT + DPO on launch models. |
| Sandbox / Managed Storage / Batch | Code execution, persistent storage, async batch jobs. |
