About

Modal is a serverless platform for running Python code on cloud GPUs. Builders use it to deploy custom AI workloads, fine-tune models, run batch inference, and host endpoints without managing infrastructure. Strong on cold-start performance and ergonomic developer experience.

Best for: Engineering teams that need GPU compute for AI workloads (fine-tuning, batch inference, custom model serving) without operating their own infrastructure. Picks Modal over Replicate when they want full Python ergonomics rather than wrapped models.
