PRESS RELEASE
FuriosaAI and hosted·ai Form Strategic Partnership to Deliver Industry-Leading AI Infrastructure Powered by Tensor Contraction Processors
Redefining price/performance/power for AI cloud deployments with next-generation inference hardware
Santa Clara, CA – 8th July 2025 – FuriosaAI, a pioneering leader in next-gen AI semiconductor, today announced a strategic partnership with hosted·ai to deliver ultra-efficient, high-performance AI infrastructure built on Furiosa’s Tensor Contraction Processor (TCP) architecture. The hosted·ai cloud platform will fully support Furiosa’s flagship RNGD (pronounced “Renegade”) processors, enabling service providers to leverage TCP-powered infrastructure for hosting AI workloads.
hosted·ai is a turnkey AI cloud platform for service providers. It delivers multi-tenant virtualization of infrastructure for AI inference and training, with full software-defined control and oversubscription of hardware accelerators such as RNGD and GPUs. This enables service providers to pool the resources of multiple accelerators, provision those resources on demand to multiple clients, and sell 4x-10x the physical capacity available. As a result they can price their offerings competitively and improve unit economics, achieving higher revenue with an increasing average margin.
The new partnership will add support for Furiosa’s flagship RNGD Processor for LLM and agentic AI inference to the hosted·ai platform. RNGD leverages Furiosa’s Tensor Contraction Processor (TCP) chip architecture, which solves the fundamental hardware challenge of running AI algorithms: providing not just raw compute power, but also using that compute effectively and efficiently to deliver excellent real-world performance.
“We’re excited by this partnership and its potential to transform the cost and impact of AI infrastructure,” said Furiosa’s SVP of Product and Business, Alex Liu. “Furiosa’s processors are purpose-built for AI and represent a huge leap forward in performance per watt compared to GPUs thanks to our Tensor Contraction Processor (TCP) architecture. hosted·ai has the same devotion to efficiency and performance in its AI cloud software stack, enabling service providers to properly virtualize the accelerator and maximize utilization. This unique combination delivers the best solution for sovereign service provider AI clouds.”
“This partnership is an important step in our mission to make AI infrastructure accessible and affordable for service providers and their customers,” said Ditlev Bredahl, CEO of hosted·ai. “Together we’ll bring new ways for service providers to accelerate AI workloads with reduced hardware CAPEX and OPEX, optimal utilization, sustainable profitability for their business, and the best price/performance for their customers.”
Availability of Furiosa RNGD support in the hosted·ai platform is expected by the end of 2025. Looking ahead, the two companies plan to develop an off-the-shelf appliance for service provider AI cloud, combining hosted·ai software, Furiosa accelerators, and rack server modules for easy turnkey adoption by service providers.
About hosted·ai
hosted·ai provides software to make AI infrastructure and GPUaaS simple and profitable for service providers. The hosted·ai platform fully virtualizes AI datacenter infrastructure, including GPUs and other hardware accelerators. This makes it possible to share and utilize 100% of hardware resources with users in a secure multi-tenant environment, which reduces the overall hardware requirement, minimizes idle resources, and dramatically changes the cost/revenue/margin equation for AI cloud service providers.
