Blacksmith
Blacksmith helps companies run their continuous integration (CI) up to twice as fast, at half the cost. We do this by running their CI on high performance gaming CPUs. - Engineering productivity is often marred by slow CI that grows quadratically with the size of the engineering organization. - On top of this, companies pay high markups to run CI on the hyperscalers. - Consequently, companies have to run their CI on spot instances to keep costs in check. Since spot instances can get pre-empted a

sourceBlacksmith is classified as Collaboration and productivity from source descriptions and fund-directory context. Similar companies below are ranked from offline product facets and meaningful description overlap; category and source affiliation can only strengthen an existing product match. For lookup-created rows, the profile starts as pending enrichment until deeper source collection runs.
Local clusters rerank extracted product concepts and description terms. The generated graph remains the fallback for sparse descriptions: offline reciprocal product-similarity graph: extracted concepts + description terms + bounded category/affiliation boosts. Minimum fallback score: 0; max competitors: 6.
