High-performance inference infrastructure for AI agents.

Baseten is a machine learning model inference platform that provides the infrastructure layer powering production AI applications and agents. It’s built for companies that need to deploy and scale AI models reliably in production, rather than building inference infrastructure in-house. Baseten describes itself as a “premier” inference platform — a claim made by the company — and has attracted customers building consumer-facing AI products that depend on fast, reliable model serving. The company raised $300M at a $5B valuation, reflecting significant investor confidence in inference infrastructure as a category.
