Quick Setup (< 1 hour)
You can use Modal to run Python code in the cloud without configuring virtual machines or managing Kubernetes clusters. It lets you deploy machine learning models, run batch processing jobs, and spin up secure sandboxes for untrusted code execution. The service offers instant access to GPUs that scale automatically from zero to thousands of units and back down, charging only for active runtime. You can also build HTTPS endpoints for model inference, fine-tune open-source models, and handle complex background processing workflows with native distributed storage.
