A commercial diffusion-based language-model platform optimized for fast, efficient inference
Build transformer-based diffusion language models that generate multiple tokens in parallel instead of generating tokens sequentially. Serve them through a production stack designed for latency-sensitive applications, while maintaining compatibility with existing model interfaces and workflows.

Problem: Autoregressive language models generate one token at a time, creating a sequential, memory-bound inference workload that uses GPUs inefficiently and increases latency and inference cost.
For: Companies building latency-sensitive AI applications, especially voice-agent providers and other applications that need high-quality model responses within a fixed latency budget.
