Our take
Pick fal if developers who will copy the model row and call HTTP. Pick Novita AI if builders who will call one OpenAI-shaped URL and maybe later pin a dedicated H100. Skip fal if people who want a studio grid (Krea) or a local Comfy graph (ComfyUI). Skip Novita AI if teams that want a single-operator reserved 8× H100 cluster (Lambda).
