Xinference is a unified inference platform that lets you run open-source language models, speech models, and multimodal models locally or in the cloud through a single API compatible with OpenAI's interface. Developers use it to easily swap between different LLMs (like Llama, Mistral, Qwen, and others) with minimal code changes, while maintaining control over model deployment across different environments. It supports various model formats and optimization techniques, making it practical for building production applications without vendor lock-in.
