Together AI Integration in Derby
Integrating Together AI into Derby applications to run open-weight models without operating GPUs, which is a genuine middle position. You get models you could self-host, at prices that reflect that, without the hardware or the on-call — and the trade is that hosted open models are retired and replaced more readily than the major proprietary ones.
Why this comes up
The problem
The application was built around an open model that has since been deprecated, and no equivalent behaves quite the same.
What you get
What we deliver
- Model choice made on your own evaluation rather than on published comparisons
- Deprecation planned for, with an identified successor and a way to switch
- Prompts kept portable, so moving model does not mean rewriting everything
- Cost per thousand requests compared honestly against hosted and self-hosted options
- Rate limits handled with backoff at realistic throughput
- An evaluation set retained, so a replacement model can be judged not guessed

Working in Derby
East Midlands
Derby is an engineering city — aerospace, rail and automotive supply chains — so the work here skews toward integration with existing plant systems, quality and compliance workflows, and reporting that has to stand up to audit.
Most work here involves connecting shop-floor and plant systems to reporting the rest of the business can actually read, plus quality and compliance workflows that have to survive an audit.

Together AI Integration in Derby — common questions
- Why choose this over self-hosting the same model?
- Because you avoid the hardware and the operational burden. Running open models yourself makes sense at sustained high volume or where the weights cannot leave your control; below that, paying per token for the same model is usually cheaper all in.
- How much does deprecation matter?
- Enough to plan for. Hosted open models are added and retired at a faster pace than the major proprietary services, so an application depending on one specific model needs a route to a replacement that does not begin when the notice arrives.
- How do we keep prompts portable?
- By avoiding heavy dependence on one model's quirks and keeping an evaluation set. Prompts inevitably get tuned to whichever model you tested against, and the evaluation set is what turns a migration from a rewrite into a measurable comparison.
- Is it actually cheaper than the major providers?
- Frequently for open models, and the comparison should be on your workload. Price per token differs from cost per task — a cheaper model needing longer prompts or more retries can cost more overall than a dearer one that answers first time.
- Do you work with businesses across Derbyshire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East Midlands, including Derby and the surrounding Derbyshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Derby businesses do you usually work with?
- Most work here involves connecting shop-floor and plant systems to reporting the rest of the business can actually read, plus quality and compliance workflows that have to survive an audit. Beyond that we work across Advanced Manufacturing, Aerospace, Rail Engineering, Automotive and Logistics.
- Do you cover the areas around Derby?
- Yes — we work throughout East Midlands, including Nottingham, Leicester, Loughborough, Birmingham. Derby is an urban area of roughly 260,000+, and we take on work across the wider Derbyshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
