About

OpenInfer develops an inference operating system for the agentic AI era, providing a software layer that lets enterprises run AI wherever their data lives across CPUs, GPUs, and NPUs on private data centers, factory floors, and air-gapped facilities without touching hyperscaler infrastructure. The engine disaggregates AI workloads and maps each stage to the most suitable hardware available, routing compute-bound tasks to high-throughput GPUs, memory-bound tasks to higher-bandwidth accelerators, and edge workloads to on-site hardware automatically. The platform supports LangChain, Ollama, and vLLM out of the box with no rewrites or new hardware required. The company is also building Loom, an orchestration layer for heterogeneous distributed inference purpose-built for enterprises running large models across fragmented compute at scale. By enabling sovereign AI infrastructure, OpenInfer addresses the defining infrastructure challenge as agentic systems generate 5-15x more compute demand than traditional chat and hardware fragments across accelerators. Founded in 2024 and headquartered in San Mateo, United States, the company has raised $8.0M in Seed funding from investors including Brave Capital, Cota Capital, Essence VC, and Operator Stack.
