Baseten
High-performance LLM inference infrastructure
About
Founded in 2019 by Tuhin Srivastava and co-founders, Baseten is headquartered in San Francisco and has raised $585M through a Series E. The platform provides production-grade ML inference infrastructure optimized for latency, throughput, and cost efficiency, enabling enterprises to deploy and scale proprietary and open-source models—including Llama, DeepSeek, and Gemma—without managing GPU clusters themselves. Baseten partners with Google Cloud and NVIDIA and focuses on mission-critical inference workloads where performance SLAs are non-negotiable. It targets AI-native companies and large enterprises moving LLM applications from prototype to production at scale.
