Lyceum

What is Lyceum?

Lyceum is an inference cloud for open-source models, built and hosted in Europe. It brings serverless inference, dedicated endpoints, on-demand GPU VMs, and large-scale training clusters into one platform, with GPUs running in European data centres for teams that need EU data residency.

What it offers

• Serverless inference: pay-per-token, OpenAI-compatible API access to open-source models including Llama 3.3 70B, gpt-oss 120B, Qwen3.5, Kimi K2.6, GLM-5.2, and DeepSeek V4 Pro. Point an OpenAI-style client at Lyceum and stream completions.
• Dedicated endpoints: reserved GPU capacity for production models when you need consistent throughput.
• On-demand GPU VMs: full root access, provisioned in seconds, with per-second billing and no minimum commitment. Hardware includes NVIDIA H100 (80GB) and B200 Blackwell GPUs.
• Large-scale clusters: 8 to 8,000 GPUs connected over InfiniBand for distributed training.
• Serverless execution and notebooks: run any Docker container or Python job on GPUs, or launch Jupyter notebooks, without managing infrastructure.

EU hosting and sovereignty

GPUs are hosted in European data centres with GDPR compliance and EU data residency, so inference and training stay under EU jurisdiction. This makes Lyceum a fit for teams with sovereignty, residency, or compliance requirements that rule out US-based providers.

Pricing

Usage-based with three models: serverless (pay-per-token, from $0.13/1M input tokens on Llama 3.3 70B), on-demand VMs (per-second billing, from $2.79/hr for an H100 80GB instance), and long-term contracts for reserved capacity. No minimum spend, and signing up needs no credit card. Prices as listed on lyceum.technology, June 2026, check their pricing page for current rates.

Who it is for

Teams that want EU-hosted inference and GPU compute without running their own hardware, from small AI startups shipping with serverless inference to infra teams orchestrating large training clusters. Lyceum is Berlin-based (Germany).
