Ultra-fast AI inference on the LPU and LPX platform
Custom accelerators designed specifically for inference rather than training, tuned for very low latency.
Hosted access to popular open models including Llama, Mixtral, Gemma, and Whisper speech models.
An API broadly compatible with common OpenAI-style request formats for quick integration.
Automatic speech recognition with Whisper plus text-to-speech capabilities for voice applications.
Open-source, high-performance vector search at any scale
Built entirely in Rust with SIMD and a custom Gridstore storage engine for fast, scalable vector search.
Combine dense and sparse vectors in one query, supporting BM25, SPLADE++ and miniCOIL for keyword-plus-vector retrieval.
Store metadata as JSON and apply advanced filters such as nested, text, geo and has_vector, with filters applied during HNSW traversal.
Asymmetric, scalar and binary quantization reduce memory usage by up to 64x while preserving search quality.
