We believe that every developer and every team should be able to succeed with AI without worrying about building and managing infrastructure.

Build the future of distributed computing for AI and ML workflows

We developed Ray, an open source project, at the UC Berkeley RISELab to solve ML and AI scaling challenges.

To make the toughest problems in distributed computing even easier for developers to solve, we built Anyscale: a fully-managed compute platform for Ray.

Fast forward to today, where developers at industry leaders like Uber, OpenAI, Shopify, and Amazon are building their next-generation ML platforms using Ray. And we’re going to keep building—because the future of computing is distributed.
