Upscale AI Adds $190 Million in Extension to Series A, Reaching Half-Billion Dollars in Total Funding

Funding Accelerates Scaling of its Open-Standard AI Networking Solutions

AI workloads have outpaced the infrastructure built to support them. General-purpose networks weren't designed for the speed, scale, and complexity of modern AI. It’s time for a network designed for the future.

Why AI Needs a

New Network.

Open Architecture

Open Architecture

Build AI clusters on open standards, with the flexibility to support heterogeneous compute and adapt across evolving infrastructure requirements.

Purpose built economics

Purpose built economics

Designed from the ground up for AI workloads, with fabrics that scale AI infrastructure while reducing network bottlenecks and improving efficiency.

Operational Scale

Operational Scale

A full-stack platform spanning silicon, systems, and software, built to scale AI fabric deployment and operations from single racks to large, distributed clusters.

Two Products. One Mission.

The Full Stack for AI Networking

Purpose-built for the demands of modern AI infrastructure, from rack-scale training clusters to cloud-scale deployments.
