    FlexAI unlocks the future of Machine Intelligence by rearchitecting the compute infrastructure. The company eliminates the challenges of running AI workloads seamlessly across diverse hardware architectures. This empowers developers of AI products and services to leverage a wider range of available computing power without needing to modify their code. Their workloads will simply run on the chosen hardware. By optimizing the utilization of all available computing resources, not just GPUs, FlexAI can maximize efficiency and minimize failures. This leads to more accurate predictions of workload completion times and a significant reduction in wasted energy due to failed processes.
