Cedana

Cedana (YC S23) brings hyperscaler and frontier-lab orchestration capabilities for AI workflows. Our core capability is live migration for CPUs and GPUs workloads. This increases cost savings up to 80%, accelerates time to first token 2-10x, and enables stateful reliability of training jobs even through catastrophic GPU failures. We've integrated our solution into K8s, and support Kueue and Slurm for training distributed jobs, and Kserve for serving inference. OpenAI, Meta and Microsoft have fla

Zibra Labs

match 65

We build distributed compute clusters with the cheapest CPUs and GPUs across Hyperscalers and Neoclouds for AI. Our mission is to bring frontier-grade infrastructure to everyone. We're starting by building large scale high performance computing (HPC) clusters for quantitative trading firms to run parallel simulation workloads such as backtesting. Our technology generalizes to critical AI workloads such as post-training with reinforcement learning, fine-tuning, long-horizon agents with high tool

Expanse

match 57

Expanse unlocks wasted GPU capacity. We recover idle compute through three capabilities: resource prediction (right-sizing job submissions before they reach the scheduler), optimisation suggestions (code and config changes researchers can apply themselves), and failure prediction (catching jobs that will fail before they consume hours of GPU time). We’re four engineers. We ran HPC and GPU training workloads at the largest quant funds and national supercomputing centres. We faced this problem fir

Blacksmith

match 48

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
