We've successfully raised $650 million in new capital to scale our inference cloud. We have strong conviction that inference will scale to be the largest and most consequential part of AI, and we've built the system that delivers the best value-to-performance for the most demanding AI applications. Moreover, industry heavyweights are joining our team. Alan Rice is joining us as COO, bringing 25+ years in hyperscale data-center operations from xAI and Meta. In addition, cloud experts Sinclair Schuller (CTO) and Rakesh Malhotra (CPO) recently joined as well. The pair are longtime partners who worked together at Apprenda, the enterprise cloud platform Schuller founded and later sold to Atos. They then co-founded Nuvalence, a software-engineering and digital-transformation firm acquired by EY in 2024. To read the full story, please read our announcement here: https://lnkd.in/gSH-XaNp

Groq is fast, low cost inference. The Groq LPU delivers inference with the speed and cost developers need.
About us
Inference is the engine that powers AI, and Groq was built from the silicon up to deliver the world's fastest inference at scale. We pioneered the LPU—the first processor designed specifically for AI inference—and are transforming that innovation into a global cloud platform powering production AI workloads. With the capital, infrastructure, and team to execute, we're uniquely positioned to define the next era of AI infrastructure. The opportunity is massive, and it's still wide open. Now let's go build it!

What does it look like when a fintech company gives everyone access to a personal financial advisor? For Stash, it looks like the Money Coach—an AI-powered agent network delivering real-time, personalized financial guidance to 1.4 million users. And with Groq powering the engine, it has never worked better. ⚡ ~37% decrease in average request time 📈 ~10% increase in total requests processed 💰 Significant cost reduction from ~$40K/month on OpenAI Stash is now faster, smarter, and more compliant than ever, and they are just getting started.

How will AI transform the future of law? Groq's COO and CLO, Claire Hart, shares her unique perspective sitting at the intersection of both worlds.
Claire Hart told me she recently asked a group of law firm associates how they were using AI, and they said they’re not allowed to. What??? So of course, I had to have her on Pearls On, Gloves Off: The Legal Innovation Podcast. Claire is COO, CLO, and Board Member at Groq, operating right at the center of AI infrastructure and innovation. She’s spent her career at companies like Google, Blizzard Entertainment, and Genies, so she knows exactly what real technology shifts look like from the inside. And in this conversation, she does not hold back. We get into: - Why she says she’d be “horrified” if her law firms aren’t using AI - The growing disconnect between client expectations and law firm behavior - How to build great teams - What young lawyers need to do right now to stay relevant - And how legal teams should be thinking about talent, ops, and technology in this moment But what I loved most about this conversation is Claire herself. She’s thoughtful, practical, and genuinely funny… while also being incredibly clear-eyed about where things are going. Find this episode anywhere you listen to your podcasts.

What if you could ship code faster than ever and still catch every bug before it reaches your customers? That's exactly what Autonoma AI built. Founded by four ex-Google engineers, Autonoma AI uses AI agents to automate software testing end-to-end, simulating real users, analyzing UIs with computer vision, and validating every step of your application, automatically. The results? Staggering: ✅ Regression testing slashed from 3 days → single-digit minutes ✅ Hundreds of thousands of tests run every week ✅ 20+ enterprise clients across fintech, retail, and tech ✅ 5,000+ installs — roughly 10x their nearest competitor But speed only works if the entire experience feels instant. That's where Groq came in. When Autonoma moved their inference workloads to GroqCloud, time-to-first-token dropped from seconds to milliseconds. Users can now describe a test in plain English and watch it come to life in real time—no lag, no friction, no waiting. Learn more about how speed and quality are no longer a trade-offs for Autonoma. They're the same thing. 👇

Groq reposted this
Thank you Kelly Goetsch for the conversation and for the opportunity to share our work and vision. It was a pleasure to talk about how we’re rethinking digital experiences with Callimacus. shop.brunellocucinelli.ai #poweredbyCallimacus
What will replace the website? Brunello Cucinelli executive and CEO of Solomei AI (a spinoff of Brunello Cucinelli), Francesco Bottigliero, joins me to discuss the all-new AI-native https://lnkd.in/gb7fQ9vb. No more pages - each screen is dynamically rendered using AI. From design all the way back to raw rendering of experiences using Groq chips, Francesco walks us through it - all in 15 minutes or less.
