Float16

What is Float16?

Float16.cloud is a platform that makes AI accessible as a service. It offers a range of models, including SeaLLM-7b-v2, Typhoon-7b, OpenThaiGPT-13b, and the upcoming SQLCoder-7b-2. These models support tasks like chat, text completion, sentiment analysis, named entity recognition (NER), and RAG (retrieval-augmented generation). Float16 works across different platforms, costs less than using OpenAI, and doesn’t lock you into a single provider, giving you flexibility.

Who created Float16?

Float16.cloud develops and provides all of the platform’s AI models. The available documentation doesn’t name a founder, so the company itself is credited as the creator.
