TokenSpeed is a high-performance LLM inference engine designed for agentic workloads, aiming for TensorRT-LLM-level performance with vLLM-level usability. It features a compiler-backed SPMD modeling layer, a C++/Python scheduler with type-safe KV cache reuse, pluggable kernels, and an AsyncLLM entrypoint.
Use cases
- serve large language models at maximum throughput
- run inference for agentic coding workloads
- deploy frontier models like Qwen, Kimi, DeepSeek, and GLM on day 0
- run FP4 inference on NVIDIA Blackwell and AMD accelerators
- avoid hand-writing tensor parallelism and collective communication code
- serve multi-hundred-billion parameter MoE models efficiently
When to choose
- you need maximum tokens-per-second for production agentic LLM serving
- you run modern datacenter GPUs like NVIDIA B200/GB300 or AMD MI355X/MI455X
- you want vLLM-like usability with compiler-generated parallelism
- you need day-0 support for the latest frontier open models
When to avoid
- you only need lightweight local inference on consumer hardware
- you need broad CPU-only or edge-device support
- you require a long-stable, battle-tested engine with extensive ecosystem tooling
- your stack depends on features specific to vLLM or TensorRT-LLM
