What is Tera?

Tera is a hosted inference provider for open-weight language models — Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek, Mistral, and more. The API is OpenAI-compatible, so existing OpenAI SDKs and tools work without modification — point them at https://api.tera.gw with your Tera API key. We’re a pure execution layer for the open ecosystem. US team, US-owned GPUs, US data centers. No proprietary model to upsell you to — we focus on per-token economics on the models developers actually ship. Prompts and completions are processed and discarded: zero retention, zero training, zero human review.
