Enterprise access to open-weight models: Japan-based user seeks non-Chinese providers
gajop · reddit · 2026-08-01
A Reddit user based in Japan asks about trusted (e.g., hyperscaler) providers offering API access to open-weight models like Kimi, GLM, and DeepSeek, citing difficulty convincing leadership to send confidential data to Chinese companies. They note GCP's open models are outdated, OpenRouter mostly offers models from makers or unknown firms, and self-hosting costs $100k/month, making it uneconomical. Currently stuck with Anthropic, they seek others' success stories.
