AI overview

Updated

Groq operates an AI inference cloud, describing itself as a neocloud built for fast, low-cost inference. It runs a global fleet of data centers across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific serving several million developers and processing trillions of tokens per week. The platform is sold in tiers spanning bare-metal infrastructure, hosted inference on open models, and enterprise-governed deployments. In 2026 the company raised roughly $650 million led by Disruptive and Infinitum and licensed its inference technology non-exclusively to Nvidia while continuing to operate GroqCloud.

What sets it apart

Groq built its own inference silicon (the LPU) and runs the full stack itself, so it sells latency and cost-per-token characteristics that general-purpose GPU clouds do not match, packaged as a plain API rather than a hardware purchase.
