TokenSpeed is a speed-of-light LLM inference engine designed for agentic workloads, with TensorRT-LLM-level performance and vLLM-level usability. The goal is to be the most performant inference engine for production agentic workloads. Core components: lifecycle, KV cache ownership, and overlap timing are encoded as a finite-state machine, with safe KV resource reuse enforced by the type system at compile time. a centralized registry including one of the fastest MLA (Multi-head Latent Attention) implementations on Blackwell for agentic workloads. wire, with no Python on the request path. TokenSpeed takes a fundamentally different architectural approach from existing LLM inference engines. The PyTorch Foundation highlighted these architectural differentiators when welcoming TokenSpeed to the PyTorch Ecosystem Landscape: More importantly, TokenSpeed is…

Evaluate before installing

Review licensing and dependencies, inspect recent commits and unresolved issues, and test in an isolated environment before production use. Stars and forks alone cannot answer these questions.
