- Founded in 2015 by Andrew Feldman, Gary Lauterbach, Michael James, Sean Lie and Jean-Philippe Fricker.
- Headquartered in Sunnyvale, California with about 401 employees in 2024.
- Designs wafer-scale AI accelerator chips known as the Wafer Scale Engine (WSE) that pack hundreds of thousands of compute cores onto a single silicon wafer to speed deep-learning training and inference.
- Launched the WSE-1 and CS-1 system in 2019, followed by WSE-2 and CS-2 in 2021 and the WSE-3 and Condor Galaxy AI supercomputer in 2024.
- Its compute systems accelerate training and inference for large language models and scientific simulations, delivering state-of-the-art performance for research institutions and enterprises.
- Supported by substantial venture funding to build next-generation AI compute infrastructure.
