## Lepton AI

- `compute/lepton-ai` | dead | evidence reported | binding none | category inference API
- needs card no, phone no, ID no, institution no | verified 2026-10-22 (live) | stale on 2026-11-06
- url https://www.lepton.ai/
- free tier: withdrawn. The platform told users it would stop operating on 2025-05-20 after NVIDIA acquired the company, and the site has not served content since: a Wayback capture from 2026-02-27 recorded status 503, and two live routes returned nothing. | unit: none | metered on: wall-clock | read on: 2026-10-22 | source: [1] | note: none
- per-object cap: not applicable | source: [1]
- retention: not applicable | source: [1]
- egress: not stated | metered: no | source: [1]
- identity: anonymous
- interface: unknown
- limits note: nothing binds: there is no account to open and no endpoint to call, and the successor is NVIDIA DGX Cloud Lepton, sold through partner clouds.
- binding note: the same as limits note
- interface detail: inferred from the tooling the provider documents; not probed
- tooling: not stated
- composes with: none: the successor is NVIDIA DGX Cloud Lepton, which is sold through partner clouds and needs a partner account.
- reliability: no reliability event recorded
- notes: The rung is reported, not documented, because the vendor page no longer serves a sentence to quote and the archive holds a 503 rather than content. The shutdown notice is a user message reproduced by two Chinese outlets, alongside NVIDIA acquisition coverage. Stale aggregators still list Lepton with per-token pricing.
