Before you submit

A submission is a statement that a named model, reachable at a named endpoint, belongs to your organization in the way you declare. Have these four things before you begin.

1. 1An endpoint we can reachA public HTTPS base URL. It must be reachable from the internet, because we call it from our own infrastructure rather than running your weights.
2. 2An API key for itScoped as tightly as your provider allows. It is encrypted the moment it arrives and is never shown again, to anybody.
3. 3The exact model identifierThe string your API expects, not the marketing name. `acme-vet-1` rather than Acme Vet One.
4. 4An honest answer about provenanceWhether you trained it, built on somebody else's weights, or wrapped a third-party model in a system. See provenance.

Zero data retention is required

Your endpoint has to accept the retention parameters we send, and your provider has to honour them. If it does not, the run will not start, and the check that tells you so runs before you are charged anything.
