An account needs a payment method and credits before the first deployment, no rate limits or SLA were found for the management API, and the docs price table disagrees with the live list in places.\n\n**Replicate Deployments.** OpenAPI file, llms.txt and an MCP server with a two-tool code mode. Private instances bill set-up and idle time, H100 at $5.49 an hour.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Hugging Face Inference Endpoints\n\n1. Call `GET https://api.endpoints.huggingface.cloud/v2/provider` first and pick an instance whose `status` is `available`. The docs table lists types the API marks deprecated or not available\n2. Send `X-Scale-Up-Timeout: 600` on requests to an endpoint that scales to zero, or handle 503 while the first replica starts\n3. Set `scaleToZeroTimeout` yourself. The docs give a default of 1 hour and the OpenAPI document says 15 minutes\n4. Pause or delete an endpoint when the job is done. Billing covers every minute a replica is initialising or running\n5. Give the agent a fine-grained token or the `read-endpoints` scope unless it must deploy. Endpoints are private by default and take the same Hugging Face token as a bearer\n\n### Replicate Deployments\n\n1. List `GET /v1/hardware` first and use the returned `sku` in the deployment body\n2. Set `min_instances` to 0 for bursty work; a warm H100 bills $5.49 an hour whether called or not\n3. Send `Prefer: wait` on deployment predictions to block instead of polling\n4. Copy outputs within an hour; API prediction data is deleted after that\n5. Wait for the reset time in the 429 body before retrying; prediction creates cap at 600 a minute\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Hugging Face Inference Endpoints or Replicate Deployments?\n\nHugging Face Inference Endpoints and Replicate Deployments score within a point of each other on agent readiness, 64.5 (B) and 63.6 (B). Replicate Deployments leads on reliability, schema \u0026 documentation, agent ergonomics, payments \u0026 pricing and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Do Hugging Face Inference Endpoints and Replicate Deployments need an API key?\n\nHugging Face Inference Endpoints takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in. Replicate Deployments needs an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Hugging Face Inference Endpoints and Replicate Deployments without installing anything?\n\nYes.
