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**Together AI Inference.** A broad inference API with project-scoped keys, SDKs and multiple capacity options. Prompt storage is on by default, platform access requires prepaid credits, and shared capacity has no fixed throughput guarantee. Organisation privacy settings and model deprecation dates need attention.\n\n## Before you call either\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### Together AI Inference\n\n1. Create a project-scoped key and set TOGETHER_API_KEY. Avoid deprecated legacy keys.\n2. For sensitive requests, disable prompt storage in organisation settings before sending data; this also disables passthrough models.\n3. Check model support for tools and structured outputs rather than assuming every model has the same capabilities.\n4. Back off on 429 and 503 responses. Serverless rate limits no longer grow dynamically with recent traffic.\n5. Check the deprecation schedule before choosing a model; Llama 3.3 70B Turbo is scheduled to leave serverless on 22 October 2026.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, SambaCloud or Together AI Inference?\n\nTogether AI Inference scores 67.8 (B) on agent readiness against SambaCloud's 66.4 (B), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. SambaCloud leads on reliability, payments \u0026 pricing and maintenance \u0026 community.\n\n### Do SambaCloud and Together AI Inference need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call SambaCloud and Together AI Inference without installing anything?\n\nYes. SambaCloud has a hosted endpoint at https://api.sambanova.ai/v1 and Together AI Inference at https://api.together.ai/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/sambanova-vs-together-inference.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/sambanova-vs-together-inference.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"sambanova\", \"b\": \"together-inference\"}`.
