Bringing AI to Everyone

DeepAI is all about making generative AI easy and accessible for everyday users. Their apps help people create with AI—whether it’s chatting with a bot, generating images, making videos, or even composing music—no coding skills required. But as their platform grew in popularity, so did their challenges. More users meant a higher risk of bad actors misusing the technology, making it critical to implement advanced safety features. To keep things running smoothly and securely, DeepAI needed a way to experiment with AI safety at scale, without burning through their budget or bogging down their team.

The Challenge

With more casual users coming on board, the chance of inappropriate content being generated increased. DeepAI needed to test new safety measures for both language and image outputs—quickly and often.

Running these experiments required single instance GPUs for relatively short periods of time, so reserving GPUs would likely be a waste. However, the pricing of on-demand instances through platforms like Azure and AWS can be incredibly unpredictable and expensive.

They needed a smarter way to experiment and scale their operations seamlessly without breaking the bank.

The Solution

That’s when DeepAI turned to Shadeform, a platform designed to simplify access to on-demand GPUs by centralizing offerings from multiple providers. Think of it as a one-stop shop for affordable, scalable compute power.

Here’s how Shadeform helped:

  • Affordable Testing at Scale: With Shadeform, DeepAI could easily compare prices across providers and spin up GPUs when they needed them—no waste, no compromises.
  • Simple Setup, Fast Results: Shadeform’s user-friendly API made it quick and easy to manage GPU instances. In just minutes, DeepAI could launch experiments and get to work.
  • Streamlined Infrastructure: Instead of juggling multiple systems, everything ran through Shadeform’s clean, unified interface, letting DeepAI focus on refining their AI instead of wrestling with infrastructure.

Real Results

Using Shadeform, DeepAI unlocked some big wins:

  • Stronger AI Safety: They built powerful systems to spot unsafe content, using advanced image and natural language processing to ensure their tools were responsible and accessible to everyone.
  • Faster, Smarter Experiments: Shadeform gave them the flexibility to test and tweak their safety features on-demand, cutting out the delays and high costs of traditional methods.
  • Simplified Operations: With Shadeform’s streamlined platform, their team spent less time on infrastructure headaches and more time improving their platform.
