Getting an API Key

To use DeepInfra's services, you'll need an API key. You can get one by signing up on our platform.

  1. Sign up or log in to your DeepInfra account at deepinfra.com
  2. Navigate to the Dashboard and select API Keys
  3. Create a new API key and save it securely

Your API key will be used to authenticate all your requests to the DeepInfra API.

Deployment

Now lets actually deploy some models to production and use them for inference. It is really easy.

You can deploy models through the web dashboard or by using our API. Models are automatically deployed when you first make an inference request.

Inference

Once a model is deployed on DeepInfra, you can use it with our REST API. Here's how to use it with curl:

curl -X POST \
  -F "audio=@/path/to/audio.mp3" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  'https://api.deepinfra.com/v1/inference/openai/whisper-small'
