Torch-TensorRT
PyTorch Foundation (Linux Foundation)Torch-TensorRT is PyTorch's official compiler that lowers PyTorch, TorchScript and FX models into NVIDIA TensorRT engines, accelerating inference on NVIDIA GPUs while staying inside the PyTorch runtime.

- https://github.com/pytorch/TensorRT/blob/main/README.md recorded 2026-10-07
README describes Torch-TensorRT as bringing "the power of TensorRT to PyTorch" to "achieve the best inference performance for any PyTorch model on the NVIDIA platform", through torch.compile or an ahead-of-time export workflow; it names no paid tier, enterprise edition or license-gated build beside the published source.
Adoption
2 high confidenceAdoption is measured from PyPI downloads of the `torch-tensorrt` package. NVIDIA also ships Torch-TensorRT preinstalled inside its PyTorch NGC containers, a channel with no published download count, so the measured figure is a floor.

Capability
4 medium confidenceTorch-TensorRT compiles PyTorch, TorchScript and FX graphs through TensorRT's optimizing builder, narrowed to one framework and one vendor's hardware. That scope places it one step below Apache TVM's broader reach.
