Pros and cons

Groq

Pros

  • Listed speeds of about 280 to 1,000 tokens per second on hosted models
  • OpenAI-compatible API and Responses API support, so migration is mostly a base URL change
  • Free tier with an API key, and pay-as-you-go pricing with no monthly fee
  • Low per-token prices, for example $0.15 input and $0.60 output per 1M tokens for GPT OSS 120B
  • Includes speech-to-text and text-to-speech models alongside text models

Cons

  • Only hosts a curated set of open models; no proprietary frontier models such as GPT or Claude
  • Some models, including Llama 3.3 70B, are enterprise-only and require contacting sales
  • Free tier rate limits are low for production use
  • No public pricing page on groq.com; prices sit in the developer docs
  • Preview models can be discontinued at short notice

  • Offers a REST API, TypeScript SDK and an iOS app

Cons
