Inference Router (Public Preview)

DigitalOcean’s Inference Router, currently in public preview, acts as a traffic controller for AI workloads. It directs inference requests to various foundation models, letting you manage how queries reach specific endpoints without building custom routing logic from scratch.

This setup suits teams already on DigitalOcean who need centralized model access. The main catch is the lack of a free tier; you pay strictly on a pay-as-you-go basis from the first request. Since it’s still in preview, expect potential instability or evolving features before committing to production workflows.
