Provider selection

Compare confidential and private inference

Compare the protection boundary, the evidence available to your client, and the model you actually need. The examples below are provider-described architectures, not current verified verdicts from this directory.

Confidential inference

Tinfoil describes a confidential VM that runs the inference workload and terminates TLS inside the enclave. Its client verifier compares the TLS public key with the attested key before exchanging application data. [1]

For provider selection, ask where plaintext is available and which components sit outside that boundary. Inspect the Tinfoil provider record, then compare its models and prices.

Attested inference

Privatemode documents collecting hardware-signed evidence, checking it against expected reference values, and releasing trust only on a match. It distinguishes attestation from the later steps that establish the encrypted request path. [2]

Use the attestation monitor to inspect the directory's dated checks and incomplete evidence. A provider's architecture description is not proof that a particular inference request followed a verified route.

TEE inference

For GPU workloads, Tinfoil documents GPU verification during the confidential VM's boot process. Privatemode separately describes worker admission and GPU verification before GPU access is enabled. [1] [2]

Compare CPU and GPU coverage separately; do not infer accelerator protection from a CPU enclave label alone. The Privatemode provider record separates documented capabilities from the directory's observed evidence.

Private inference providers

The documented request paths differ: Tinfoil describes attested TLS key binding and encrypted HTTP bodies, while Privatemode describes client-side prompt encryption and key release to attested workers. [1] [2]

Shortlist providers by available models, billing units, client integration requirements, and the evidence for the chosen request path—not by the word “private” alone. Start with the provider comparison above and compare the same model across providers.

Disclosure log

Tracked, not comparable

These providers make relevant confidential-inference claims, but do not currently expose enough working, public evidence to join the model and pricing comparison above.

io.net

No active confidential models
Website ↗
Observed
The documentation advertises confidential inference, but the authenticated catalog returned 28 active models and 0 with attestation enabled. Every model also had an empty attestation endpoint.
Required for comparison
At least one priced model must return fresh, independently verifiable hardware evidence from the documented private inference route.

Maple

Website ↗
Observed
Maple requires a paid subscription before the live model catalog and API can be accessed. Without an account, current models and prices cannot be independently refreshed from an official endpoint.
Required for comparison
Maple must expose a public model and pricing source, or the directory needs a working subscription that can query the live catalog.
