We Saved 60% on GPU Costs — Here's Exactly How

We Saved 60% on GPU Costs — Here's Exactly How

Six months ago, our GPU bill was the largest single line item in our infrastructure spend. It was growing 40% month-over-month and we couldn't precisely trace why.

Triton vs CUDA Kernels: Which Should You Optimize For?

Triton vs CUDA Kernels: Which Should You Optimize For?

If you're optimizing AI inference at the kernel level, you've arrived at the point where the framework no longer helps you. You're staring at GPU utilization numbers that should be higher, latency that should be lower, and a decision: drop into CUDA C++, or write Triton kernels in Python.

Building AI Infra for Startups: Mistakes We Made (So You Don't)

Building AI Infra for Startups: Mistakes We Made (So You Don't)

We started OneInfer because we made nearly every infrastructure mistake in the book building previous AI products. This is the honest version of that story - not a polished retrospective, but the actual mistakes, the actual costs, and what we would do differently if we were starting today.

Add an AI Feature to Your Product in 30 Days — A PM's Technical Roadmap

Add an AI Feature to Your Product in 30 Days — A PM's Technical Roadmap

Most product teams treat adding an AI feature as an infrastructure project. It isn't. It is a product decision that requires infrastructure support — and getting that distinction right is what separates teams that ship AI features in 30 days from teams that are still in sprint planning six months later.

White-Label AI Features — How Agencies Build New Revenue With Inference APIs

White-Label AI Features — How Agencies Build New Revenue With Inference APIs

Your clients are asking for AI. Not in a vague, exploratory way — in a specific, budgeted, deadline-attached way. They want intelligent search in their e-commerce platform. They want automated content generation in their CMS. They want predictive analytics in their reporting dashboard. They want it in the next quarter, and they want to see your proposal by end of month.
