Running DeepSeek V3 (685B) requires 8×H100 GPUs which is about $14k/month. Most developers only need 15-25 tok/s. sllm lets you join a cohort of developers sharing a dedicated node. You reserve a spot with your card, and nobody is charged until the cohort fills. Prices start at $5/mo for smaller models.The LLMs are completely private (we don't log any traffic).The API is OpenAI-compatible (we run vLLM), so you just swap the base URL. Currently offering a few models.

Could you build this?
No Operating shared multi-tenant 8xH100 clusters with fair scheduling, custom GPU slicing, secure memory isolation, and high-throughput inference for 685B parameter models requires massive capital and specialized systems/GPU infra engineering.
What it would actually take: Building this requires a fleet orchestration layer on bare-metal GPU clusters (8xH100 NVLink nodes) using custom inference serving frameworks (vLLM, TensorRT-LLM) modified for fair-share token throttling and multi-tenant batch scheduling. It also needs a low-latency proxy layer with distributed billing/locking (Stripe integration, Redis locks) and secure execution isolation to prevent noisy-neighbor memory exhaustion, requiring expert GPU cluster and systems engineers.
Discussion
20 comments analyzed.
Competitors mentioned: OpenRouter, Chutes, Novita, hotaisle.xyz
Concerns raised: Product shutting down, Support email bouncing/unresponsive, Difficult to unsubscribe or close account, Earlier cohorts being canceled, Less flexible than competitors (can't switch models per-request)
Feature requests: 1-week or 1-day trial option before monthly commitment, Support for additional models beyond Qwen (MiMo-V2-Pro, Trinity), Ability to switch between models per-request, Stronger TEE guarantees if threat model requires it
