Description
GPUs are built for training, not inference. General Compute is an inference cloud running on ASICs — purpose-built alternatives to Nvidia silicon designed specifically for inference. We deliver 5x faster responses and higher per-user throughput for latency-sensitive workloads like coding and voice agents. Our OpenAI-compatible API means you swap your base URL, keep your existing workflows, and run real-time AI on infrastructure built for the job.

Could you build this?
No General Compute operates physical hardware racks and specialized ASIC chips (Cerebras, SambaNova, d-Matrix, etc.) backed by massive capital and low-level systems engineering.
What it would actually take: A real version requires negotiating datacenter leases, securing specialized ASIC hardware allocations, writing custom low-level device drivers and distributed model-partitioning runtimes (e.g., custom kernels, SRAM memory management), and building a fault-tolerant multi-tenant neo-cloud orchestration platform.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a model & infra tool for Fintech yet.
