Discover, install and connect to inference models on Ubuntu — from one place.
Inference Manager from Canonical brings provider management and model access together. Use the command line to manage inference snaps, and connect your applications to a single endpoint that routes requests to the providers running on your machine.
Inference Manager allows you to:
Discover available inference providers and inspect their models and engines.
Install and remove inference snaps from the command line.
List models available through the inference proxy.
Check service status and provider health.
Send inference requests through a single local endpoint.
