AI & Data Science NVIDIA NIM Access/Accounts

Hi,

I’m wondering what the process is for reloading my nvidia account with more API credits to use NIM cloud service.

Currently my NIM account shows “0 credits”

Thank you for reaching out! There are a few ways to continue using models in the NVIDIA API catalog once you have run out of credits.
If you have your own infrastructure:

  1. You can sign up for a 90-day free NVIDIA AI Enterprise license by logging into build.nvidia.com and explore if purchasing the license makes sense for you. This will let you download and self-host NIM inference microservices. It is available today.
  2. NIMs will soon become available to members of the NVIDIA Developer Program for development, testing, and research purposes. We will notify all of our members when this benefit is active so they can download the NIMs. If you are not yet a member, you can check out all the program benefits and sign up through this link: https://developer.nvidia.com/developer-program
    Note that self-hosting with NIM is only available for some models in the API catalog such as Llama 3 8b, Llama 3 70b, Mistral 7B, Mixtral 8X7B, and Mixtral 8x22B, however more models will become available for download and self-hosting soon and will be added over time.
    If you need a managed solution, Hugging Face offers dedicated endpoints to selected NIMs with clear pricing structure. Here’s a link to instructions: https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/nvidia-collaborates-with-hugging-face-to-simplify-generative-ai-model-deployments/
