Together AI vs Munito AI

Together AI and Munito AI side by side for open models: regions, data retention, APIs, OCR, decision models and prices.

Updated Read as Markdown

Choose Together AI for the widest catalog of open models and for GPU clusters you rent by the hour. Choose Munito AI when the request has to run in Europe, when you want the same prices with a DPA and a named region, or when you need a deployment inside your own perimeter.

Prices and models checked on 2026-11-07. Prices change, so check them at the source.

The price page names no region, no EU host and no retention policy. For a buyer whose first question is where the request runs, that absence is the finding, and the answer has to come from the contract rather than the website.

Prices

Standard tier, per million tokens, input / output, both in USD. Munito AI in the EU.

ModelMunito AI, EUTogether AI
DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017$0.30 / $1.20$0.30 / $1.20
GLM-5.3-Flash$0.15 / $0.50$0.15 / $0.50

DeepSeek-V4-Flash$0.11 / $0.28Not listed
Gemma 4 12B$0.11 / $0.33Not listed

The two models both platforms serve cost the same to the cent. That is the useful fact on this page: the EU region is not a premium here. Cached input matches too, at $0.006 per million tokens on DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017.

So the comparison is not about price. It is about what else comes with the request.

How to switch

Both speak the OpenAI API, so the move is a base URL and a key:

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="https://api.eu.munito.ai/inference/v1",
    api_key="munitoai_...",
)

Every response names its region in the munito-region header, so a test proves the residency rather than asserting it.

Where Together AI is stronger

  • A much larger catalog, including frontier open models, Kimi, MiniMax and many sizes of each family.
  • GPU clusters by the hour: HGX H100 at $5.49 and HGX B200 at $8.99 an hour on demand, with reserved rates on request. If you want to train, not only serve, that is a different product from ours.
  • Single-tenant dedicated instances with guaranteed performance.
  • Scale and maturity: more customers, more throughput, a longer track record.

Where Munito AI is stronger

  • A named EU region at the same price. Send to https://api.eu.munito.ai and the request runs in the EU; the response header says so.
  • The Anthropic Messages API beside the OpenAI Chat Completions and Responses APIs, so Claude Code and Anthropic-shaped harnesses connect with no proxy. See Compatibility.
  • Zero data retention by default, and no training on your data, stated on the data privacy page and in the Terms, not only in a contract.
  • A DPA that applies with no signature, at legal.munito.ai/dpa.
  • A deployment of your own: managed in the EU or the US, inside your cloud account, or on-premises.
  • OCR billed per page at $0.0044, not per token through a vision model.
  • Decision models: pplx-decider-v1.2 and Cygnet answer yes or no, choice and score questions through the Decisions API.

What a security review will ask

Where the request runs, where stored content sits, who the sub-processors are, how long anything is kept, and what the DPA says. We publish each answer: Regions, Data privacy, sub-processors, the DPA. The security review guide collects them in one place. Our SOC 2 audit and ISO 27001 certification work are in progress.

If you are already on Together AI and the review is the blocker, the switch costs two lines and no price increase.
