Untether AI delivers energy-centric AI inference acceleration from the edge to the cloud, supporting any type of neural network model. Founded in 2018 with a mission to break AI out of data centers and make it available all the way to the network edge, we’ve developed a unique at-memory architecture for deep learning that places the processing next to the memory – minimizing data movement and power consumption. Using our hardware, enterprises become untethered from the data center, free to run AI workloads nearly anywhere.
Other AI inference accelerator companies make promises; Untether AI makes products.
