Open Interpreter is an open-source terminal agent, forked from Codex, that reads and edits files and runs commands inside an OS-level sandbox with approvals. It is free under Apache 2.0 and works with local models through Ollama or LM Studio.
Together AI
Together AI is a cloud platform for running open models through a per-token serverless API, plus dedicated endpoints, GPU clusters and fine-tuning. Hosted GLM-5.3-Flash, for example, is listed at $0.15 input and $0.50 output per million tokens.
Description of Together AI
Together AI is a cloud platform for running, customizing and serving open and open-weight AI models. Its serverless inference API gives developers one endpoint for many third-party models, so a project is not tied to a single model vendor. Beyond serverless calls, Together sells provisioned throughput and dedicated inference endpoints for steady traffic, on-demand GPU clusters, a code sandbox, managed storage and fine-tuning, including LoRA, full and supervised fine-tuning. The company has also launched Together Link, which it describes as a way to run open models inside agent harnesses you already use.
Serverless prices are listed per million tokens and differ by model, with separate batch API prices and discounted cached input where supported. Examples on the pricing page include GLM-5.3-Flash at $0.15 input and $0.50 output, DeepSeek V4.1 Flash at $0.30 input and $1.20 output, MiniMax M3 at $0.30 and $1.20, GLM-5.3 at $1.40 and $4.40 and DeepSeek V4 Pro at $1.32 and $3.96. Kimi K3 was shown with a promotional rate that expired on 11 October 2026. Tabs cover chat, vision, image, audio, video, transcription, embeddings, rerank and moderation models. Fine-tuning is priced by tokens processed in training, with a minimum charge per job.
Host rates can differ from the original model maker's own API. DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, for instance, is priced differently here than on DeepSeek's platform, so compare both before choosing. No general free tier is stated on the pricing page.
Features of Together AI
- Serverless per-token API for many open models across chat, vision, image, audio, video, embeddings and rerank.

Frequently asked questions
How does Together AI charge for models?
Serverless inference is billed per million input and output tokens, with rates set per model and separate batch prices. GLM-5.3-Flash, for example, is $0.15 input and $0.50 output per million tokens.
Is Together AI cheaper than using the model maker's API?
Not always. Together sets its own rates, and some differ from the original vendor's API, so compare the same model on both pricing pages before deciding.
