Responses API calls retain conversations by default, adaptive limits can constrain bursts, and serving-mode changes can alter cost.\n\n**GroqCloud.** Free plan with no card, at 30 requests a minute and 1,000 a day on gpt-oss. Four model shutdown dates between 2026-07-17 and 2026-09-21, with no stated minimum notice.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Fireworks AI Inference\n\n1. Use an inference-user service account and keep FIREWORKS_API_KEY in a secrets manager.\n2. Use https://api.fireworks.ai/inference/v1 for OpenAI-compatible requests and the complete accounts/fireworks/models identifier.\n3. Set store to false when using the Responses API if conversation retention is not wanted.\n4. Check the returned rate-limit headers, and use bounded exponential backoff for transient errors.\n5. Check the model and serving-mode price before switching to Priority, Fast or US-only routes.\n\n### GroqCloud\n\n1. Call `/models` at start-up. Four model ids stopped working between July and September\n2. Read `retry-after` on a 429 and the `x-ratelimit-remaining-tokens` header before the next call\n3. Free plan allows 8,000 tokens a minute on gpt-oss, so keep prompts small or batch them\n4. Don't build on Qwen 3.8 27B. It's a preview and previews can go at short notice\n5. Treat a 498 as Flex capacity and retry later; server errors aren't billed\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Fireworks AI Inference or GroqCloud?\n\nGroqCloud scores 74.5 (BB) on agent readiness against Fireworks AI Inference's 73.5 (BB), and leads in 3 of 7 scored categories. Fireworks AI Inference leads on schema \u0026 documentation.\n\n### Do Fireworks AI Inference and GroqCloud need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Fireworks AI Inference and GroqCloud without installing anything?\n\nYes. Fireworks AI Inference has a hosted endpoint at https://api.fireworks.ai/inference/v1 and GroqCloud at https://api.groq.com/openai/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/fireworks-inference-vs-groq.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/fireworks-inference-vs-groq.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"fireworks-inference\", \"b\": \"groq\"}`.
