Make prediction a contract.
FastAPI gives a model a clear boundary: validated input in, predictable output out.

{ "label": "approved", "score": 0.87 }Online predictions answer now. Batch predictions process a known set later. Latency, cost, and freshness make the decision.
Version datasets, code, weights, and evaluation results so a good decision can be reproduced.
Select the requirement that matters most.
Record a model identity you can reproduce. It persists after refresh.
