"At LayerJot, I’ve been training computer vision models for years, focusing on state of the art object detectors. Strong Compute have taken pre-optimized reference libraries and sped them up 20x. This turns a 60 hour training run into a few hours. Our highest value engineers are working on deep learning, and this makes them vastly more productive. I've been a VP of Engineering at five companies, including Atlassian and Mulesoft, where I was responsible for large engineering teams. The potential to speed up developer workflows here is enormous, so much so that in addition to being a customer, I've now invested as well. The future of the cloud needs to be about speed, ease of use and clear billing. Strong Compute is building this and I'm glad to be a customer and a backer."
"We wrote the first check into Strong Compute after Y Combinator, seeing their ambitious goals, rapid rate of iteration, and the strength of the team Ben had built. Raising significant capital in these conditions shows the incredible potential of this company, and we're excited to support them as they build the future of cloud."
