Just how many Large Language Models (LLMs) are out there?

Me neither. It’s a field growing faster than ever — which leads to a key question: if you want to use an LLM to bring AI into your business or project, which one should you choose?

Meet UnifyAI🤖

UnifyAI is a platform designed to help businesses unlock the full power of artificial intelligence by connecting them with the best Large Language Models (LLMs) for their needs. Its mission is to make LLM pipelines stronger and smarter, matching developers with the ideal models based on their unique goals — all while optimising for quality, cost, and speed.

Timely!⏰

Unify AI is helping businesses of all sizes bring AI into their workflows — right in the middle of the global AI boom. By seizing this moment, the company is tapping into a huge opportunity, with clients ranging from ambitious startups to Fortune 500 giants eager to integrate their technology.

Concerns?🤔

Pricing for enterprises is a bit unclear — while professional and personal plans are transparent, enterprise costs require direct contact with the company. Plus, Unify AI isn’t exactly beginner-friendly; if you’re a sole trader or new to LLMs, you might find the platform a little tricky to navigate at first.

How well are they doing? 📈

Unify AI has raised over £6.3 million in seed funding from an impressive roster of investors. The company is now looking to expand its platform to support every stage of the LLM lifecycle — from early ideation to final deployment. With the LLM market projected to grow by nearly 36% by 2030, Unify AI is well positioned to make a major impact in 2025 and beyond.
