Nyckel

What it does

Nyckel is a hosted machine learning platform delivered as a REST API. You define a function, such as classification, detection, or search, and Nyckel handles model selection, training, hosting, monitoring, and improvement from real-world feedback. Inputs can be images, text, or structured data, and each prediction returns a label with a confidence score from 1 to 100.

Teams typically start with a pretrained classifier or detector, test it on their own data, then clone it into their console and adapt it with custom examples. Production invokes can be captured as samples and reviewed, which feeds back into training. The emphasis is on consistent, repeatable decisions rather than generated text.

It suits developers and technical teams building applications that need the same decision made at high volume, such as moderation, routing, or fraud screening. Access is through the API, with a web console for setup and review. A free plan includes 100 invokes per month, paid plans start at $149 per month, and usage beyond included limits is metered. Enterprise pricing requires contacting sales.

What it can do

• Classify images, text, and structured data into custom labels
• Count and locate objects in photos with bounding boxes via pretrained detectors
• Choose from over 1000 pretrained image and text classifiers and clone them into a console
• Return predictions with confidence scores for each invoke
• Capture production invokes as samples for review and retraining
• Route uncertain predictions to human review queues on higher tiers

Before you choose

• Overage charges apply per invoke and per additional sample on paid plans; monitor usage in the dashboard.
• Starter and above include private inference, meaning data is not sent to public AI models; the free plan does not.
• Enterprise pricing and specific compliance scope require contacting sales.

Get started

Start free with 100 invokes per month, or use the API quickstart for a first prediction in five API calls.

1. Create a free account and try a pretrained classifier or detector on your own data.
2. Define labels and upload examples, or clone a pretrained function into your console.
3. Follow the API quickstart to make a first prediction, then review captured samples to improve accuracy.

Free plan includes 100 invokes and up to 200 samples per month, with $0.005 per invoke after included usage. Starter ($149/month) includes 15,000 invokes, with $0.005 per invoke and $0.0025 per additional sample beyond that. Business ($599/month) includes 300,000 invokes, with $0.001 per invoke and $0.0005 per additional sample beyond that. Enterprise is custom and requires contacting sales.
