What it runs on, and what runs on it
0 cited edgesComputed from the stack graph, both directions. Every cited edge links the page it was read from; a vendor-added one links the vendor’s own source — this is the reason to be here rather than on the vendor’s own site.
No edges on record for FriendliAI.
Nothing in the directory documents depending on it, and its own docs do not name what it runs on. An edge is only stored when a source states it.

READINGS OVER 21 DAYS OLD ARE HIDDEN RATHER THAN SHOWN STALE, SO THIS TABLE CAN EMPTY OUT BETWEEN READS · MOVED COMPARES THE CHEAPEST READING WE TOOK ON EACH DAY, WHICH ON A MARKETPLACE IS A DIFFERENT HOST FROM THE ONE PRICED BESIDE IT — BOTH ENDS ARE SHOWN SO NOTHING HAS TO BE INFERRED · A MOVE IS A CHANGE IN OUR READING, WHICH IS NOT ALWAYS A CHANGE IN THE MARKET: A CORRECTED EXTRACTOR MOVES THE SERIES WITHOUT THE PRICE MOVING
Configurations
FriendliAI publishes no machine-readable catalogue of its instance types, so no configurations are recorded. The prices above were read from its pricing page; a configuration read the same way would be a guess about how many GPUs a price covers, which is the mistake this section exists to avoid.

Nobody has written one yet.
A review here is structured, not a star: hardware, scale band, what broke in production, and whether you would choose it again.

A model that quotes us should quote us correctly. The reading and its date sit inside the citation rather than beside it, because a quotation carrying only a URL goes wrong the week the URL changes.

What FriendliAI can and cannot change here
Claiming FriendliAI lets its admins and editors change the tagline, description, logo, docs link and deployment model of every product that org owns — live, labelled as theirs, and logged. Answers to blank questions and dependencies go live too, marked as the owner’s and sourced; a documented answer cannot be overwritten. Everything else on this page is a stated fact with a dispute route: price, licence and OSS figures. Those columns are ungranted at the database level, so they are not a feature we withheld — they are a write that cannot happen. Name, category, website, pricing page and package names can be changed by the owner only through our review. A dispute never deletes a value; it marks it and publishes the correction.
