AI Model Hosting — Replicate

Evaluates Replicate's Cog & Custom Model Push across 9 scenario-based test cases, each graded against an expected-behavior rubric by an LLM judge, from Corsac's AI Model Hosting eval coverage.

About Replicate

Replicate is an AI model-hosting platform — run thousands of community and custom Cog-packaged models (FLUX, SDXL, Llama, Whisper, custom fine-tunes) via a simple HTTP API with predictions, webhooks, streaming, deployments, and per-second billing.

Integrator's cog.yaml declares build.gpu=true but does not specify a GPU class. Push succeeds but predictions OOM on the assigned tier.

Match the predict.py memory footprint to the documented per-tier VRAM (T4 16GB, A40 48GB, A100 40/80GB, H100 80GB). Declare the target hardware tier on the model in the Replicate UI (or via the API) — build.gpu=true is necessary but not sufficient. Test with a representative input before shipping.

02

Custom Llama-7B model loads weights into GPU memory on every predict() call, adding 18 s per request.

Load weights once in setup() (called on container boot) and hold them in self.model. predict() should be a hot-path call against the warm model. Cold-start cost amortizes across all subsequent predictions on that container. [REQUIRES-VERIFICATION] for current container-lifetime caps.

03

predict.py declares predict(prompt: str, image: Path = Input(default=None)). Replicate auto-derives the OpenAPI input schema from this signature.

Use cog.Input() with type hints, default, and description; the generated input_schema is what users (and the operator's own UI generators) consume. Path inputs are auto-downloaded by Cog from a URL — do not duplicate that logic. Annotate enums via Literal[...] or choices=[...].
