2M+ AI developers and 50K+ companies running AI workloads

The Problem

Companies are locked into Nvidia's GPU ecosystem with no easy way to evaluate or switch to alternatives like Google's TPUs. Each chip architecture requires different code optimization, making it prohibitively complex to run a multi-chip infrastructure or choose the best hardware for specific AI workloads.

Potential Solution

A SaaS platform that provides a unified API for AI workloads, automatically benchmarks models across different chip architectures, and intelligently routes tasks to the optimal hardware based on real-time cost, performance, and availability data. This eliminates vendor lock-in and reduces infrastructure costs by 30-50%.

Why Now?

Major tech companies like Meta are actively exploring Google TPUs as alternatives to Nvidia, signaling a shift toward heterogeneous AI compute. The market is at an inflection point where multi-chip strategies are becoming viable, but management tools don't exist yet.
