Ceramic is redefining the foundations of ai infrastructure. Founded by Anna Patterson, whose 20+ years journey in ai span groundbreaking research at Google and Stanford, leading critical ai initiatives in big tech, and driving transformative advancement in the field, Ceramic is revolutionizing large-scale model training with faster, more efficient systems and cutting-edge capabilities, including very long-context training. 

Our mission is to remove barriers through breakthrough optimizations in distributed training and novel architectural approaches. We've developed enterprise-grade infrastructure that delivers 2.5X faster training speeds than the current state-of-the-art while reducing overall compute requirements. With our advanced algorithms, we achieve 72% MFU on H100’s at 64K context lengths. We enable companies to build better models faster, with less compute and lower costs, while enabling long-context training for any size of model.

Infrastructure should accelerate ai innovation, not constrain it. By solving the fundamental challenges of large-scale model training, we're empowering researchers and engineers to push the boundaries of ai without limitations.

Ceramic brought together an exceptional team of engineers, researchers, and system architects with deep expertise in ai, distributed systems, machine learning, infrastructure, search and big data. Driven by curiosity and a commitment to innovation, the team is dedicated to building tools that push the boundaries of what ai can achieve. Join us!

Currently, we are running proof of concepts with customers and proving out that our software can save companies millions.

Our ai blog will contain our take on the latest industry trends, the first one is DeepSeek.

NEA led our seed round with participation from IBM, Samsung Next, Earthshot Ventures and Alumni Ventures. And our friends-and-family round includes some of the most forward-thinking investors in the industry such as Lukas Biewald, Laszlo Bock, Sean Carey, Jeff Hammerbacher, Ankit Jain, Seval Oz, Joanna Rees, Gokul Rajaram, and Ram Sriram.
