Oxen
oxen.ai
What it is
Oxen combines access to AI models with tools for organizing and versioning the data used with them. Its unified API provides more than 200 text, image, video, and audio models. Oxen versions prompts, media, labels, metadata, generated outputs, and training examples, and says it can scale to millions of files and terabytes of data. Teams can browse datasets, review generated work, experiment across branches, and track who changed what and when. Users can fine-tune supported open-source models on proprietary text, image, and video datasets. Data can be read or written through the Python API, HTTP API, command line, or open-source server. Private deployment is available in a customer’s VPC or fully on-premises. Explorer is free and includes unlimited public repositories and collaborators, five private repositories, up to three private collaborators, and 50gb each of storage and transfer. Hacker costs $30 a month; Pro costs $60 a month. Model inference is pay as you go; dedicated GPUs are charged per second and shut down after 15 minutes of inactivity.
