The All-You-Can-Eat plan launches with unlimited DeepSeek 4 Flash access and will expand to include free access to additional open-weight LLMs
ATLANTA, GA / ACCESS Newswire / October 14, 2026 / Token charges, usage limits, and throttling are making AI use and development more expensive and restrictive. Rival.io today announced All-You-Can-Eat, offering unlimited access to open-weight LLMs, starting with DeepSeek 4 Flash, without subscription fees, token charges, throttling, or artificial usage caps. Through a free Personal Workspace, builders can use, create, and monetize AI tools, knowledge bases, and workflows, paying only for the underlying compute they consume and any paid Marketplace tools they choose to use.
Rival.io will continue to add new open-weight LLMs, giving builders and teams greater flexibility to choose the right model for each task and workflow.
All-You-Can-Eat builds on Rival.io's mission to make AI easier to build, more affordable to run, and more rewarding to create. The platform enables people of all technical backgrounds to build agents, functions, workflows, MCP servers, and knowledge bases using RivalBot, its conversational AI builder; a visual workflow builder; or advanced developer tools. Through the Rival.io Marketplace, creators can publish and monetize their innovations, earning revenue each time customers use their paid tools.
"Our goal is to take everything that's hard, expensive, and broken about AI and make it better," said Craig Kronenberger, co-founder and CEO of Rival.io. "We made development accessible to people who don't write code. We built technology that dramatically lowers the cost of running AI. And we gave creators a way to earn from their expertise. Now, we're eliminating the token meter, so people can build without worrying about usage limits, throttling, or surprise charges. The AI industry has built a business around charging people to experiment. We believe the real value is in what people create."
As builders and enterprises increasingly look to open-weight models for greater control over their AI strategy and spending, All-You-Can-Eat makes powerful AI models more accessible and costs more predictable across different levels of technical expertise and organizational needs.
Individuals can build, publish, and monetize through a free Personal Workspace with unlimited DeepSeek 4 Flash access for one concurrent connection. For developers who need advanced capabilities, the $15-per-month Pro Workspace adds command-line tools, API access, and Micro VM environments within agentic workflows. The $150-per-month Team Workspace supports up to five users with shared tools and knowledge, a private company Marketplace, centralized billing, permissions, and governance. Both paid plans include unlimited All-You-Can-Eat access to the DeepSeek 4 Flash model.
All-You-Can-Eat is made possible by GraphX, Rival.io's proprietary kernel-optimization and silicon-placement technology, which significantly reduces the cost of hosting powerful open-weight LLMs by optimizing their execution and identifying more efficient hardware. These efficiencies allow Rival.io to eliminate subscription and token charges for development and experimentation.
"Removing the token meter is not a pricing promotion. It's an infrastructure achievement," said Charlie Wardell, co-founder and CTO of Rival.io. "We've dramatically lowered the cost of running open-weight models by making better use of the infrastructure behind them. Compute still has a cost, but developers and teams shouldn't have to manage token packages, expiring credits, or overage charges just to keep building. Better infrastructure economics mean we can make development free, give advanced builders more freedom, and offer enterprises greater flexibility at a fraction of the cost."
All-You-Can-Eat is now available through Rival.io.
