There is a model that was just released called falcon-40B that is available for commercial user. It outperforms every other open LLM model available today. Buyer beware, however, because the license is custom[1] and has restrictions for "attributable revenues" over $1M/year. I'll leave that for you to interpret as you will.

EDIT: I just realized you seem to be asking for a fully realized, turn-key commercial solution. Yeah, refer to others who say there's no alternative. It's true. Something like this gives you a lot more power and flexibility, but at the cost of a lot more work building the solution as you try to apply it.

It's more than that, it requires permission in advance and royalty payments (art. 8). See also attribution requirements in art. 5. Arguably, any license could be waived - it should be possible to write to Meta for permission as well, so it's not in a much better state than Llama itself for commercial use.
