Inkling deployment guide
How to choose a Inkling inference provider
Inkling is indexed here as a text model by Thinking Machines, with 1 provider endpoint from Together. The comparison preserves each exact OpenRouter routing tag so pricing and performance observations can be connected to the route an application would actually request.
Match the endpoint to the workload
The model publishes a 1M-token context window. It accepts text, image, audio input and returns text output. 15 distinct supported parameters appear across the listed routes. Confirm limits on the specific endpoint rather than assuming every host exposes the same configuration.
Compare the real request economics
Together currently has the lowest estimated cost for the standard 1,000-input/500-output-token sample at $0.003025. Input-heavy and output-heavy applications can produce a different result, so review both per-million-token prices in the endpoint table.
Balance response start and generation speed
No endpoint currently has both recent first-token and output-throughput measurements. Missing metrics are shown explicitly and excluded from speed awards without removing the provider route.
