Frequently asked questions
How does Replicate handle scaling?
Replicate automatically scales up to handle increased traffic and scales down to zero when there is no traffic, ensuring users only pay for the compute they use.
Can I deploy my own custom models on Replicate?
Yes, you can deploy your own custom models using Cog, Replicate's open-source tool for packaging machine learning models.
How is billing handled on Replicate?
Replicate bills users only for the time their code is running. Some models are billed by time, others by input and output.
