Liquid cooled, OAM module
Session memory, writableCompute, ready at power-on
Model-specific inference silicon

Inference,cast insilicon.

A purpose-built inference rack for B2B data centers. Your model becomes part of the hardware, so every token comes back faster, costs less energy and leaves nothing in the field to tamper with.

01The bottleneck

A GPU re-reads the model for every word.

It does this for every token and every user. Batching hides the cost on a utilization chart, but each person waiting on an answer still feels it. Race one answer and see.

Racks joined on your Ethernet spine. The largest models span racks; smaller ones run many copies in one. Keep scrolling to take it apart.

03Efficiency

Fast for one person. Efficient for millions.

Pick a model. Each square is one node of Infer18 serving one full copy of it.

04Security

Nothing to tamper with. The model is the chip.

On a GPU server the model is a file. Anyone who can reach that file, whether an attacker, a bad update or a wrong upload, can swap it, alter it or quietly poison it, and the server will serve the changed model without noticing.

On Infer18 the model is fixed into the chip when it is made. There is no file to replace and nothing to rewrite, in the data center or anywhere on the way there.

On a GPU serverA changed model goes live, unnoticed.
On Infer18Nothing to change. The original model, every time.
Proposal: security properties follow from the design and await silicon validation

06Proof

Every claim, labelled.

Simulation results, engineering estimates and proposals are kept apart across this site. Below, each test is harder than the last, and every generated token must match the reference model exactly.
