02

Why Anyscale Endpoints Closed and What Comes Next

Anyscale focused on Ray Serve enterprise and sunsetted the public Endpoints product. Many teams that built on Anyscale's Llama / Mixtral APIs found themselves needing a drop-in replacement. Railwail is the cleanest path: identical OpenAI-compatible schema, transparent pricing.

Why Railwail Is the Right Successor

  • Same OpenAI-compatible API
  • Adds Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini โ€” Anyscale was open-source only
  • Built-in playground at railwail.com/models
  • Per-key rate limits and spend caps

FAQ

What about Anyscale's fine-tuning?

Anyscale offered custom LoRA fine-tuning. Railwail does not currently host custom fine-tunes. Train on Together or Hugging Face TRL and self-host, or use prompt engineering / RAG to achieve similar specialisation.

Are embeddings supported?

Yes. POST /api/v1/embeddings supports OpenAI embeddings.

Does Anyscale's Ray Serve self-hosted setup migrate too?

Self-hosted Ray Serve deployments are not in scope for Railwail (we are a managed inference API, not a deployment platform). If you need self-hosting, look at vLLM Endpoints or BentoML.
