Replicate is joining Cloudflare

You don’t know how good they were really doing and you don’t know how good the offer was.

From what I know they were the most used inference provider by developers a few years ago, but since the Together AI and Fireworks only grew while Replicate seems to have stayed quiet. It’s a highly competitive low-margin business, so volume is critical and if you’re losing volume then you’re doomed.

My perception (engineer at modal.com) is that Replicate lost out to Fal.ai more than they lost to Together AI and Fireworks.
