Buyer’s guide to private AI inference

If you’re investigating a private inference platform, what should you look for? Our buyer’s guide gives you four key questions to use with your vendors when evaluating a platform, plus five detailed worksheets to help engineering, security, and finance agree on a shortlist.

What you’ll learn

Private AI is a buying decision your whole team has to live with. Use this guide to turn competing priorities into requirements you can test, and compare approaches before committing to a platform. We’ve included the working tools, so you don’t have to start with a blank spreadsheet.

  • Test platforms against four requirements: execution control, model routing, spend management, and day-2 operations.
  • Align the buying committee and classify workloads with worksheets that make each team’s requirements explicit.
  • Compare DIY, hosted services, AI gateways, and packaged private platforms, then build a shortlist with a weighted vendor scorecard.
  • See an illustrative eight-GPU cost model, including operations and frontier fallback, to challenge the assumptions in your own business case.
