Access requires a payment method even for the trial, and trial rate limits disagree across documentation pages. Shared-model availability and dedicated-model availability differ.\n\n**SambaCloud.** Per-token prices and the model list are readable without a key at `/v1/models`, and a free tier needs no card. Production models get two to three weeks' notice before removal, 13 model ids left between March and June 2026, and the docs disagree with the live catalogue on MiniMax-M2.7.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Cerebras Inference\n\n1. Set CEREBRAS_API_KEY and use https://api.cerebras.ai/v1 with an OpenAI-compatible client.\n2. Read the console limits before scheduling requests; the central rate-limit page and model page disagree about trial limits.\n3. Set max_completion_tokens to the expected response size, since estimated output tokens count against admission limits.\n4. Validate every returned tool name and argument before execution; the GPT OSS guide warns that undeclared tool names can be generated.\n\n### SambaCloud\n\n1. Call `GET https://api.sambanova.ai/v1/models` at start-up and use only ids it returns. The docs name models the endpoint no longer lists\n2. Read `x-ratelimit-remaining-requests` and `x-ratelimit-remaining-requests-day` on every response. The free tier allows 20 requests a day per model\n3. Treat 429 `queue_full` and 503 `maintenance` as retryable after a delay, and 410 `model_deprecated` as a signal to change model\n4. Validate JSON output yourself. Schema enforcement is best effort and `strict: true` changes nothing\n5. Check `max_completion_tokens` per model. DeepSeek-V3.1 caps output at 7,168 tokens and Llama 3.3 70B at 3,072\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Cerebras Inference or SambaCloud?\n\nCerebras Inference scores 68.4 (B) on agent readiness against SambaCloud's 66.4 (B), and leads in 3 of 7 scored categories. SambaCloud leads on reliability, payments \u0026 pricing, maintenance \u0026 community and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Do Cerebras Inference and SambaCloud need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Cerebras Inference and SambaCloud without installing anything?\n\nYes. Cerebras Inference has a hosted endpoint at https://api.cerebras.ai/v1 and SambaCloud at https://api.sambanova.ai/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cerebras-inference-vs-sambanova.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cerebras-inference-vs-sambanova.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"cerebras-inference\", \"b\": \"sambanova\"}`.
