Hey Product Hunt! đź‘‹ I’m Sid, co-founder of Hathora, and I’m excited to share Models powered by Hathora with you today.
The Problem:
We’ve talked to dozens of developers building voice AI applications, and the story is always the same: they spend more time wrestling with infrastructure than improving their agents. Deploying voice models globally, managing latency, handling scale — it’s a massive distraction from the actual product. On the other hand, if you use closed source models from teams like OpenAI, ElevenLabs, and Cartesia you pay 7x the price.
Our Solution:
Models allows you to host your own models one (or many) from our model marketplace and fine-tune them on our managed infrastructure. We handle the global distribution, the infrastructure complexity, and the scaling – you focus on building great voice experiences.
Why We Built This:
At Hathora, we’ve been building infrastructure for real-time applications (originally for game servers, where even 20ms matters). We saw the same patterns emerging in voice AI: developers need low latency, global distribution, and reliable infrastructure. Models brings that same infrastructure-as-a-service approach to voice models.
What Makes Models Different:
-
Deploy to edge locations worldwide and give your global user base sub-50ms network latency
-
Use open-source models (no vendor lock-in, full customization)
-
Fine-tune on your own data with managed compute
-
Zero DevOps: we handle the infrastructure and provide serverless endpoints
Current Status:
We’re in beta with 10-15 early users, and we’re opening up access today. We’d love to hear your feedback and learn about your voice AI use cases!
Special Offer:
Product Hunt users one month UNLIMITED USE on Hathora with code PHMODELS, and the offer expires December 31.
Thanks for checking us out! Happy to answer any questions. 🚀
